  • Mets: Are 4-2 through the first six games of their eight-game stretch against NL East opponents...Mets relievers did not allow an earned run over 4.1 innings...Is the most innings the bullpen has gone without allowing an earned run in a game this season.
  • Tylor Megill: Has recorded seven or more strikeouts in three of his first five starts this season...Was the first Mets starter since Taijuan Walker to record eight or more strikeouts over 4.2 or fewer innings...Walker had 10 strikeouts over 4.1 innings on October 4, 2022.

  • Mark Vientos: Put the Mets on the board with a two-run double in the second...Has nine RBI in his last nine games..Is batting .385 (15-39) against left-handed pitchers.

  • Starling Marte: (2-4, R): With his 21st multi-hit game of the season tied for fifth-most such games in the National League and tied for the 11th-most such games in the majors.

NY Post: Mets start homestand with momentum-killing loss to Marlins “They got just four hits, made a pair of costly errors and generally looked like a team that was still on London time in a 4-2 loss to the last-place Marlins. And it came in front of another small crowd at Citi Field, where the Mets have played poorly all season.”

Laura Albanese Newsday: Mets fall to Marlins despite Francisco Alvarez's return.  "The Mets defense collected their 43rd and 44th errors of the year – second in the National League to…well, the Marlins – both leading to unearned runs. This also happened after coming into the day with -31 defensive runs saved above average, according to Baseball Reference, which is the second-worst in baseball."

Brian Joura Mets360: The Citi Field offense reared its ugly head, as the Mets managed just two runs on four hits and fell to the lowly Marlins, 4-2, Tuesday night. A two-run double by Mark Vientos gave the Mets a 2-1 lead in the second inning. But that was the extent of their run scoring for the night.

1979

The Mets enjoy the most productive inning in franchise history when ten runners cross the plate in the sixth fame of their 12-6 victory over the Reds at Shea Stadium. The highlight of the double-digit deluge is Doug Flynn's three-run inside-the-park home run.

Baseball Reference:

2007: The Dodgers homer on three straight pitches off the Mets' John Maine in the 2nd inning, as Wilson Betemit, Matt Kemp and Hong-Chih Kuo go yard. Kuo's home run is the first ever in the major leagues by a native of Taiwan.
