The New York Mets beat the New York Yankees 12–6 at Citi Field on Saturday, their fourth straight victory, to move to 52-38 and keep pace for a 94-win season. First baseman Pete Alonso supplied the bulk of the offense, launching two home runs—including his 19th of the year—and driving in five runs. The 30-year-old now has 73 RBIs, two shy of the Major League lead, and sits five home runs short of Darryl Strawberry’s franchise record. Center fielder Brandon Nimmo added a grand slam, his second in four games, as the Mets scored four runs in both the first and seventh innings. Frankie Montas earned the win in relief, while Yankees starter Carlos Rodón was tagged for seven runs and took the loss. The intracity series concludes Sunday afternoon.
