The New York Mets defeated the San Diego Padres 6-5 last night for their second consecutive win and improved their record to 47-51. RHP Seth Lugo got the start and was not sharp as he's been in his previous outings. Lugo allowed four runs (three earned) on eight hits in six innings. He gave up no walks and had three strikeouts. Even though he didn't have his best stuff, he was still able to pick up his fifth win. RHP Paul Sewald came in next and pitched two scoreless innings in the bottom of the seventh eighth innings. RHP Addison Reed allowed a run in the bottom of the ninth inning, but still managed to close it out and pick up his 18th save.
LF Yoenis Cespedes led the Mets offense with three RBI's. Cespedes hit a solo homer in the top of the first inning as well as a RBI double in the top of the fifth inning and a RBI triple in the top of the sixth inning and then came around to score on a throwing error. Catcher Travis d'Arnaud hit a RBI single in the top of the fourth inning. 3B Asdrubal Cabrera added a RBI double in the top of the fifth inning.
