Part 1/6:
A Thrilling Comeback: The Mets' Dramatic Path to the Postseason
Alonzo Ties It Up
In a tight one-nothing game, Pete Alonzo stepped up to the plate in the bottom of the ninth inning and delivered a game-tying home run, his second of the day. This blast not only evened the score, but also marked the 500th RBI of Alonzo's major league career - the fastest player to reach that milestone, doing so in just his 690th game.
Taylor Delivers the Game-Winner
With the game knotted at 1-1, Tyrone Taylor came through in the clutch, driving in the winning run with a base hit down the left field line to give the Mets their first victory of the season. It was a hard-fought win, with the Mets' pitching staff holding the Tigers in check until the offense could finally break through.
