NY Post: Edwin Diaz implodes in ninth as Mets suffer brutal loss to Dodgers. "Diaz recorded just one out and surrendered four runs in the ninth, sending the Mets to their worst loss of the season, 9-8 at Dodger Stadium...Joc Pederson and Max Muncy homered in Diaz’s inning from hell before Bellinger slapped an RBI double that pulled the Dodgers within 8-7. With the bases loaded, Verdugo hit a shot to left that was plenty deep enough to bring in the winning run."

NY Post: Hefner homers in 1st MLB win, Mets beat Phillies. "Jeremy Hefner earned his first victory in the majors, highlighting the occasion by homering for his first big league hit as the Mets beat the Philadelphia Phillies 6-3 on a rainy Tuesday night. The 26-year-old rookie became the first major league pitcher to hit his first homer in his first win since 2002, when Dennis Tankersley did it with San Diego, STATS LLC said. Pinch-hitter Scott Hairston had a two-run homer and newcomer Omar Quintanilla doubled twice and singled to help New York win for the fourth time in five games."

NY Post: Piazza HR gets Mets Healthy - solo shot in 7th lifts Amazin's back into 1st. "With the score tied 3-3 in the seventh inning, Piazza didn’t miss against reliever Jose Santiago, unleashing a team’s worth of frustration with one swing. The pitch, a 2-2 offering that was a 91-mile- per-hour fastball, soared over the fence to the left of the center-field flagpole. Piazza’s 426-foot bomb, his 10th homer of the year, gave the Mets a much-needed 4-3 victory over the Phillies and catapulted them back into a first-place tie with the Braves, who lost by a similar score to the Expos last night in Atlanta."
