The Mets Have a Chance to Win Against the Phillies!

By Nicholas Stix

After trailing 1-0 for much of the game against Phillies, the Mets got to a wilting Nola in the seventh, to tie the game, and then got into the Phils’ “El Stinkowski” bullpen for five runs in the eighth and another five in the ninth, off two three run dingers by Todd Frazier, a two-run homer by Michael Conforto, and a two-run single by Amed Rosario. That means with the Phils getting last licks in the ninth, that the Mets actually have a shot at winning. A ten-run lead is what they require.
