NY Mets vs. Philadelphia Phillies: Live score, post-game updates

play

PHILADELPHIA – The Mets couldn’t hang on and pull off the improbable.

One night after the Mets bullpen took the lead in a Game 1 win, Edwin Diaz and Tylor Megill couldn’t repeat that performance.

Although Mark Vientos tied the game with a two-run home run in the ninth inning, Nick Castellanos hit a walk-off RBI single off Megill in the ninth inning, ending the Mets’ hopes of a 7-6 loss in front of 45,679 fans Sunday at Citizens Banks Park. Instead, the Mets settled for a split and returned to New York for Game 3 on Tuesday night at 5:08 p.m.

With the Mets leading 4-3, Carlos Mendoza called on Diaz, and the top of their Phillies lineup had two ons and two outs in the seventh. The Mets’ closer recorded this, but fell victim to a two-run triple by Bryson Stott in the ninth. Vientos scored another run one batter later on a bobble.

The Mets took a 3-0 lead early in the fifth inning on home runs by Mark Vientos and Pete Alonso, and the Phillies evened the score on a two-run home run by Bryce Harper and a solo home run by Nick Castellanos in consecutive at-bats.

Brandon Nimmo put the Mets back in the lead with a solo home run off Orion Kerkering in the top of the seventh inning. Mark Vientos evened the score at 6-6 in the ninth inning off Matt Strahm with his second home run of the game, a two-run shot.

With the Mets unable to get control of the series, here are Game 2 updates and analysis:

Nick Castellanos gives the Phillies a win

Tylor Megill recorded two outs to start the ninth but failed to penetrate the heart of the Phillies lineup.

Megill walked Treat Turner in two consecutive at-bats, then Nick Castellanos pulled an inside slider to left field to secure the winning run in a wild 7-6 win for the Phillies.

Mark Vientos’ second home run equalizes the game

At this point, it doesn’t make sense to throw out a Mets game in the final two innings.

With Matt Strahm in the game for the Phillies, Francisco Lindor hit a one-out single to center and Mark Vientos then hit a game-winning two-run home run over the left field wall to make it 6-6.

Phillies hit Edwin Diaz in the eighth to take the lead for the first time

Carlos Mendoza’s gamble didn’t work out.

The Mets manager brought in Edwin Diaz to face the top of the Phillies lineup, but he was unable to protect his one-run lead in the eighth inning.

Diaz threw around Bryce Harper and walked to him, gave up a single to Nick Castellanos and then Bryson Stott ripped a game-winning two-run triple into the right field corner with a hanging slider. Mendoza picked off Diaz after that pitch and brought in Tylor Megill.

With Megill, the Phillies extended their lead to 6-4 when Stott scored from third on a chopper mishandled by Mark Vientos. Diaz finished the game with three earned runs allowed in ⅔ innings on two hits and walks and two strikeouts.

Edwin Diaz prevents the Phillies from opening in the seventh

Carlos Mendoza didn’t want to risk any of his bullpen by facing the top of the Phillies lineup, other than his closer Edwin Diaz.

Jose Butto started the bottom of the seventh inning, hitting JT Realmuto, recording two outs and then Kody Clemens hit an infield single that bounced off Francisco Lindor’s glove.

When it was the top of the Phillies lineup’s turn, Edwin Diaz came in and got Kyle Schwarber to wave a slider in the dirt for the final out. The Mets lead 4-3 heading into the round of 16.

Brandon Nimmo responds immediately for the Mets

With all the energy on the Phillies’ side, Brandon Nimmo wasted no time in silencing the crowd at Citi Field.

Nimmo ripped a low sinker from Orion Kerkering over the right field wall to give the Mets the lead again, 4-3. Nimmo appeared to exchange a few words with Phillies catcher JT Realmuto as he crossed home plate.

Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos took advantage of Luis Severino’s mistakes to tie the game

On Sunday, Luis Severino silenced Phillies fans at Citizens Bank Park for five innings.

That changed with two outs in the bottom of the sixth inning. Trea Turner singled and then Bryce Harper tagged a 99 mph fastball off the ivy-covered eye of the batter in center field for a two-run home run. Then Nick Castellanos hit a hanging sweeper deep into the crowd in left field.

In no time, Citizens Bank Park became louder than ever before. The Phillies finish the game 3-3 and move on to the seventh round.

Luis Severino was finished after the frame. He finished the game with three earned runs allowed on six hits and no walks with seven strikeouts. A strong start, which was marred somewhat by a few long balls.

Pete Alonso has entered the chat

A nine-pitch at-bat early in the fifth inning by Harrison Bader helped keep Cristopher Sanchez out of the game after five innings with two hits allowed.

But in the first at-bat against Jose Ruiz, Pete Alonso threw a hanging curveball over the right field wall, extending the Mets’ lead to 3-0. It is Alonso’s first goal in seven attacks in the series. He had two RBI in the first two games after adding a sacrifice fly in Game 1.

Cristopher Sanchez is getting into form

Since Phillies left-hander Cristopher Sanchez gave up three hits in the third inning, he seems to be finding a rhythm.

Sanchez has struck out five of the last six batters he has faced. The Mets’ big third inning is coming, however, as Sanchez’s pitch count is at 67.

The Mets lead 2-0 midway through the fourth quarter.

Mark Vientos gives the Mets the lead in the third

As mentioned below, Mark Vientos was the Mets’ most consistent offensive threat in the playoffs. He highlighted his early success with an opposite-field home run off a first-pitch changeup from Cristopher Sanchez.

The two-run home run – Vientos’ first long ball of the season – gave the Mets a 2-0 lead in the top of the third. Vientos is now batting .389 with five RBI in the postseason.

The Mets forced Sanchez to throw 26 pitches in the frame, bringing his total to 51 in three innings.

The Phillies defense reacts after an error by Edmundo Sosa

In the opening shot of the second period, Jose Iglesias threw a slow chopper to the left side and moved to second when a throw from Edmundo Sosa – playing in place of the benched Alec Bohm – missed first.

But Bryson Stott jumped up to avoid a base hit from JD Martinez, and Bryce Harper jumped to left to smother a ground ball from Francisco Alvarez. Cristopher Sanchez worked around his second traffic to keep it scoreless after the end of the second period.

Luis Severino strands Trea Turner at third base

With one out in the first inning, Trea Turner hit a broken-bat single through the right side. Turner stole two bases to move within 90 feet of the score.

But Luis Severino caught a borderline strike-three call at the top of the zone against Bryce Harper and a weak drive out by Nick Castellanos.

“Mark Vientos keeps hot streak going, Mets can’t make money.”

Mark Vientos was arguably the Mets’ most reliable offensive weapon early in the playoffs.

The 24-year-old third baseman, who was 2-for-4 with a run and an RBI in NLDS Game 1, blasted an opposite-field one-out double against Cristopher Sanchez into the right field corner in the first. Vientos failed to score after two consecutive fly balls into midfield from Brandon Nimmo and Pete Alonso.

With a hit in Game 2, Vientos is 6-for-17 (.353) with three runs and three RBI in the postseason.
