Mike Puma NY Post: Francisco Lindor’s two-homer night propels Mets to key win over Padres. "Francisco Lindor’s best season for the Mets is only improving, at a time the team needs him most...Saturday night he slugged two home runs, including a grand slam, in leading a 7-1 rebound victory over the Padres at Petco Park."
Tim Healey Newsday: Francisco Lindor homers twice, gets 'M-V-P!' chants in Mets' win over Padres. "With 27 homers, Lindor is tied with Pete Alonso for most on the team. He also leads the Mets with 78 RBIs. Combine those with a .269 average, an .831 OPS and high-level defense at an up-the-middle-position and you have one of the best seasons in the majors this year — and, at minimum, Lindor’s best season since he joined the Mets in 2021."
Brian Joura Mets360: "It was another case of Peterson being the anti-deGrom, the pitcher on the mound who receives a bunch of offensive support. But it’s not like he needed it in this case. When you allow just 1 ER in 7.1 IP, you’re doing all right. The win upped Peterson’s record to 8-1 and lowered his ERA to 2.85."
