After two consecutive brutal losses, the Met offense broke out in a big way, slugging four home runs and tallying 17 hits in a 11-4 win. It’s not quite enough to totally wash the taste of the last two days out of our mouths, but it was encouraging win with contributions from the entire roster. Dom Smith showed his value, Pete Alonso came off the bench to slug his 33rd home run, and even the bullpen looked impressive for a time.
Though the end result was good, the start of the game felt like more of the same for the Mets.
