The Met offense was shutdown by RHP Zack Wheeler for the first seven innings, managing only one hit and three walks, but came alive in the top of the eighth against the bullpen.

3B Mark Vientos then drove in pinch-runner Harrison Bader with a RBI single.
LF Brandon Nimmo followed with the go-ahead RBI single to score Lindor.

In the top of the ninth, Bader led off with a single and stole second.
Two batters later, Nimmo drove in Bader for his second RBI of the game.
RHP Kodai Senga made his first and only start of the season since July 26 before straining a calf muscle and gave up a lead-off homer to DH Kyle Schwarber in the bottom of the first, but then settled down after that.
Senga had a scoreless bottom of the second and was taken out after the inning with 31 pitches.
His final line was two innings, one hit, one run, one walk and three strikeouts.
LHP David Peterson followed with three scoreless innings in the bottom of the third, fourth and fifth innings.
RHP Reed Garrett threw two scoreless innings in the bottom of the sixth and seventh.
Garrett picked up the win.
