Mets rally in 9th, score 5 in 10th to beat Reds

CINCINNATI — Brandon Nimmo's three-run homer capped a five-run 10th inning and the New York Mets came from behind late to beat the Cincinnati Reds 8-3 on Wednesday night.

Starling Marte grounded an RBI double over third base off Hunter Strickland with one out in the ninth, scoring Nimmo from first to tie the game at 3.

Dominic Smith's double off Dauri Moreta (0-2) drove home pinch-runner Ender Inciarte from second base with the go-ahead run in the 10th. James McCann delivered an RBI single before Nimmo's shot sent the NL East leaders to their 20th series win this season by taking two of three from Cincinnati.
