Mets stave off elimination by beating Dodgers 12-6.  After David Peterson escaped a 2nd and 3rd and no outs 1st without allowing a run, Pete Alonso homered after a Lindor single and a Nimmo walk to give the Mets a 3-0 lead.  Mets added 5 more in the 3rd highlighted by a Starling Marte 2-run double, a Francisco Alvarez an RBI single, and a Francisco Lindor RBI triple.  Mets added 2 in the 4th, 1 in the 6th and 1 in the 8th.  They needed all of those runs as David Peterson, making his first start since September 29th, tired after 3.2 innings.  Ryne Stanek saved the day by throwing 2.1 innings and allowing a Mookie Betts HR with no walks.  Edwin Diaz threw the last 2 innings. 


Brian Joura Mets360: "The Mets banged out 14 H and added 5 BB and 3 HBP. And they finally got some hits with RISP, as they went 5-19 in that key metric. It doesn’t sound like much but after going 0-10 on Thursday, it was like a godsend. By comparison, the Dodgers – who came into the game batting .333 with RISP – went 1-7."


Laura Albanese Newsday: Three takeaways from Mets' Game 5 win over Dodgers in NLCS. "1. We’re saying there’s a chance... this gives them a difficult — but not impossible — avenue to a World Series. In Game 6, Sean Manaea, who handled the Dodgers well in Game 2, will be on the hill against a bullpen game. That sets up Luis Severino to be the Mets' Game 7 starter if it gets that far...2. Alvarez might be back...went 3-for-5 with a run and an RBI...3. Everything is going to have to go right for this ride to keep rolling."

National Pastime.com:

1986

At Shea Stadium, Steve Crawford is the winning pitcher in the Red Sox' 9-3 victory over the Mets in Game 2 of the World Series. The right-handed reliever, who was 0-2 before the start of the postseason, becomes the first hurler to win a Fall Classic contest after being winless during the regular season.

1999

The Braves stroll into a World Series berth with their 10-9 walk-off victory against the Mets at Turner Field in Game 6 of the NLCS. Atlanta has their ticket punched to the Fall Classic when Kenny Rogers issues a base on balls to Andruw Jones with the bases loaded and one out in the bottom of the 11th inning to force in Gerald Williams with winning run.

 

2006

For a new generation of fans, the term "the Catch" may conjure up memories of Endy Chavez's NLCS Game 7 leaping catch at Shea's left-field fence with his outstretched glove, grabbing a ball destined to be a Scott Rolen two-run home run, and starting an unbelievable double play. The heroics are overshadowed in the ninth inning as Yadier Molina hits a two-run homer and Carlos Beltran, who has the best HR ratio (11/81) in postseason history, looks at a third strike with the bases loaded with Mets, giving the Cardinals a 3-1 victory and the pennant.
