New York Mets’ Starling Marte celebrates with Zack Short after they scored off of Marte’s a two-run home run during the third inning of a baseball game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Wednesday, April 17, 2024, in New York. The Mets scored four runs in the sixth inning and another three in the eighth against the Pittsburgh Pirates bullpen to fuel a 9-1 victory and clinch their first series sweep of the season on Wednesday afternoon at Citi Field.
“I’m definitely happy with the results,” Taylor said. “It helps build confidence… It speaks for the type of team we have. This is a great group in here and we’re having a fun time playing for each other. I think that’s huge. That creates a winning mentality. It’s been cool to see us get some wins lately.”
The former Yankee, making his fourth start with the Mets, went a season-high six innings, allowing one run on five hits with four strikeouts, and three walks. The backswing caught Alvarez on the left hand, stunning the 22-year-old momentarily. After being checked out by manager Carlos Mendoza and a team trainer, he remained in the game.
It was Falter’s lone mistake of the afternoon, as he went five innings, allowing those two runs on four hits with four strikeouts and a walk.
