Brian Joura Mets360: "The Mets put on an offensive show on Sunday. Unfortunately, so did their pitchers. The end result was an 11-10 setback."
NY Post: Tylor Megill, Mets pitchers battered in loss to Rockies despite offensive eruption. "Megill became the second straight Mets starter, joining Justin Verlander the previous night, to struggle. Megill was knocked out after four innings in which he allowed six runs (two unearned on his own error) on 10 hits and two walks over four innings...Stephen Nogosek got shelled in the fifth, allowing a two-run homer to Charlie Blackmon after Austin Wynns had delivered an RBI double. Ryan McMahon concluded Nogosek’s pounding in the inning with a two-run homer that extended the Rockies’ lead to 11-6."
Newsday: Alvarez’s three-run homer highlighted the Mets’ six-run rally in the fourth.

John Fox Mets360: "The Mets cruised to an 8-2 victory over their division rival the Phils before a crowd of 37,445 at Citi Field. The first-place Mets improved their record to 31-17. The home-town nine drew first blood in the second when Starling Marte motored into third base on a single to right by Mark Canha, and then scored on a Dom Smith sac fly."
NY Post: "Lindor continued his recent hot streak with three RBIs (he has driven in a run in six straight games, a career-high) and two runs scored. Alonso set a Mets record for most RBIs in the month of May with 29, after driving in a run with a sacrifice fly. McNeil produced the big blow, a go-ahead, three-run homer in the fourth through raindrops, continuing a season-long trend of the Mets responding immediately after falling behind."

Baseball Reference: In the 3rd inning of a game against the Dodgers, Mets P Noah Syndergaard is ejected for throwing at Chase Utley, in apparent retaliation for Utley's aggressive slide which injured Mets SS Ruben Tejada in last year's NLDS. Umpire Adam Hamari also tosses Mets manager Terry Collins for arguing his decision, then Utley gets his revenge when he opens the score with a solo homer off Logan Verrett in the 6th and adds a grand slam off Hansel Robles in the 7th. The Dodgers hit five homers in total as they win the game, 9 - 1.

Baseball Reference: The Mets honor Yankees great Mariano Rivera, who has announced his retirement at the end of the year, by having him throw the ceremonial first pitch before the game between the two teams from the Big Apple at Citi Field, with retired Mets closer John Franco acting as his catcher for the occasion. However, the night doesn't end so well for Mo, as Daniel Murphy leads off the bottom of the 9th with a double and David Wright and Lucas Duda follow RBI singles to turn a 1 - 0 deficit into a 2 - 1 win. It is the first time of Mariano's illustrious career that he blows a save without retiring a single batter; it is also his first blown save of the year.
