Rotten Apples: Mets 4, Phillies 3

The Mets completed the sweep against the Phillies in walk-off fashion, extending their lead in the NL East to 5 games.

It’s worth saying that it wasn’t Zack Wheeler’s best start by far, but he got them through the first six innings in a position to win the game. His nine strikeouts on the day gives him an even 50 on the season so far.
