Brian Joura Mets360: "Starling Marte cracked a three-run homer in the sixth inning to break up a 2-2 tie and send the Mets on their way to a 6-4 win over the Dodgers Saturday afternoon in Los Angeles. It was the Mets’ sixth consecutive win and gives the Mets the series win, with a chance to sweep on Sunday."

NY Post: "Marte walked to the plate in a 2-2 game in the sixth and smashed reliever Ryan Brasier’s second pitch, a slider, over the center-field fence for a three-run homer. The blast was Marte’s fourth this season, second on the team to Pete Alonso’s six."

Mets.com"...when Ohtani approached home plate in the eighth inning Saturday as the game’s potential tying run, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza pushed a button he had yet to touch all season: he called on Edwin Díaz before the ninth. The result was not Díaz’s smoothest effort. But the Mets closer did just enough during the eighth inning of a 6-4 win over the Dodgers, striking out Teoscar Hernández and Max Muncy to strand the bases loaded."

Tim Healy Newsday: "The most fun piece of Saturday for Marte, according to Marte: manufacturing a run in the eighth inning. He reached on Mookie Betts’ throwing error, Marte’s speed perhaps impacting the defensively iffy converted outfielder. Then Marte stole second and scored on Francisco Lindor’s single."

Although he breaks his bat on the swing, Ike Davis becomes the first major leaguer to hit a grand slam for two different teams in April when he homers off Mike Leake, helping the Pirates defeat the Reds, 6-5, at PNC Park. Before being traded by the Mets to Pittsburgh earlier in the month, the 27 year-old first baseman went deep against another Cincinnati hurler, J.J. Hoover, for a walk-off slam in the bottom of the ninth at Citi Field.
