Mets 5, Phillies 4 (10 innings)
NEW YORK -- Shortstop Wilmer Flores tied the game with a sacrifice fly in the eighth inning Tuesday night and won it with an RBI single with two outs in the 10th inning as the New York Mets edged the Philadelphia Phillies 5-4 at Citi Field.
The Mets (26-21) won the first two games of the three-game series. The Phillies (19-29) lost three straight and five of six.
Center fielder Juan Lagares led off the 10th by singling against right-hander Jeanmar Gomez (0-1). Left-hander Elvis Araujo then walked first baseman Lucas Duda before second baseman Daniel Murphy hit into a double play. Left fielder Michael Cuddyer drew a walk before Flores laced the first pitch he saw for a single over leaping shortstop Freddy Galvis.
Right-hander Jeurys Familia (1-0) earned the win with two scoreless innings.
The Mets led 3-0 before a frantic eighth inning in which the Phillies -- who didn't get a runner past first base in the first seven innings against right-hander Jacob deGrom -- scored four runs off four pitchers before New York tied the score in the bottom half.
The Phillies chased deGrom and tied the game in a nine-pitch span, when, with one out, catcher Carlos Ruiz and pinch-hitter Cesar Hernandez singled off deGrom. Right-hander Hansel Robles entered and gave up the lead in four pitches via a two-run triple by center fielder Ben Revere and an RBI single by Galvis.
Left-hander Alex Torres struck out first baseman Ryan Howard, after which third baseman Makiel Franco singled off right-hander Carlos Torres.
Duda, who had an RBI single in a three-run third inning, drew a walk leading off the eighth against right-hander Ken Giles. Murphy doubled Duda to third. Cuddyer, who had a two-run single in the third, struck out before Flores lofted a sacrifice fly.
DeGrom was charged with the two runs on six hits over 7 1/3 innings. He walked none and struck out nine and has struck out 26 while walking just one over his last three starts, a span of 21 1/3 innings.
Phillies right-hander Jerome Williams allowed three runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four over six innings. He also singled in the sixth.
NOTES: Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro spent 20 minutes talking to reporters in the visitor's dugout as he tried to quiet the stir he created earlier Tuesday when CSNPhilly.com carried an interview with Amaro in which he criticized Philadelphia fans for their impatience with the team's rebuilding. "I probably used my words incorrectly or poorly," Amaro said. "I want to apologize for that." ... Mets C Travis d'Arnaud (broken right ring finger) caught five innings in an extended spring training game. It was his first action since he was injured April 19. He could begin a rehab assignment this week. ... Mets RHP Rafael Montero (right rotator cuff inflammation) is scheduled to throw off a mound on Wednesday for the first time since he went on the disabled list April 30.
