Mets Morning News: Mets split doubleheader with Marlins, two Mets reach milestones

The Mets split their doubleheader against the Marlins with their pitching and offense clicking in the first game and mistakes dooming them in the second. Joey Lucchesi got the start in Game 1 and was solid once again. He pitched into the seventh and gave up two runs but was not helped by Trevor Gott who allowed the inherited runners to score. It was still another good performance and in nine starts Lucchesi ends the year undefeated. The offense did plenty to back him up lead by Pete Alonso who ended up a triple shy of the cycle.
