The New York Mets are on a remarkable run, having won their fourth consecutive game by defeating the Philadelphia Phillies 10-6. This victory marks the third consecutive game in which the Mets have scored 10 or more runs, a first in the franchise's history. Key performances included home runs by Mark Vientos, Pete Alonso, Brandon Nimmo, and Francisco Alvarez. The Mets' offense has been potent even in the absence of Francisco Lindor, with contributions from various players. On the pitching side, Jose Quintana extended his scoreless streak to a career-high 22 2/3 innings, helping the Mets secure a series sweep against the Washington Nationals earlier in the week. The Mets are now 16-4 in their last 20 games and are tied for the second and third wild-card spots in the National League with the Arizona Diamondbacks, both having 68 losses. The team is set to face a challenging schedule ahead, including games against the Phillies, Braves, and Brewers, as they push for a playoff berth. The Mets' current record stands at 84-68, with Jose Quintana earning the win and DJ Herz taking the loss in their recent games.
