The Magic is Back Again - The Mets Come from Behind to Beat the Phillies 6-2 in Game 1 of the NLDS

 

Highlights from the 8th and 9th Inning When the Mets Took the Lead

We met some Bob Dylan fans for lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square.  We came home in time to watch the game starting at 4 PM.   Zach Wheeler was really tough on the Mets for seven innings, but the Mets got to the bullpen in the 8th and 9th inning as seen above.

Pete Alonso OMG!

 

The Met bats were cold last night until the ninth inning when Pete Alonso hit a three-run homer to put the Mets ahead 3-2.  They scored one more run to make the score 4-2.  Dave Peterson held the Brewers scoreless to get the save.  We can all jump for joy, but the next step is the best three of five NLDS against the Philadelphia Phillies.  That will be a tough series.  We are all concerned about Pete's future with the Mets since he becomes a free agent at the end of the season.

There was a watch party at Citi Field.  Below is a report from WCBS-2 News
