Brian Joura Mets360.com: Mark Canha and Brandon Nimmo each had two hits and drove in three runs, as the Mets snapped a two-game losing streak with a 7-3 win over the Angels Friday night in Anaheim. It was the 15th loss in the last 16 games for the Angels.

Metstradamus: The Ones Who Return And The Ones Who Never Left. "They’re getting a lot of guys back soon and the Mets will need every single one of them. MeGill only went 3 and 1/3, giving up five hits including a two run HR to Brandon Marsh in the second, but struck out four and only walked one. It was a fine first step for Megill. As for Alonso, he was 1-for-5 with a bloop hit...But Friday’s 7-3 win over the Angels was powered by the top of the lineup..."

NY Post: Brandon Nimmo’s three-RBI night propels Mets past Angels. Nimmo, who entered the night 3-for-29 (.103) in June without an extra-base hit, homered in the fourth and delivered a two-run double in the sixth. He also walked during a second inning in which the Mets scored three runs to set the early tone.

NY Post: Max Scherzer’s rehab moving quicker than Mets expected. "The veteran right-hander has been throwing from a mound in his rehab work, according to manager Buck Showalter, and will soon progress to facing hitters in live batting practice."

The total of eleven homers in the second game sets a National League record for two clubs in 9 innings and the two teams tie a NL mark when they total 40 extra bases on long hits (26 for Chicago and 14 for New York). The mark was set on July 31‚ 1954. Adolpho has 6 hits and 8 RBIs on the day.

The 26 runs in one game is a club record and the most in the National League since 1944.
