Mets Pounce into Playoff Position with Hot Streak
The New York Mets will see a delightful “—” under the “WGB” column when they check the standings on Friday, signaling their entry into playoff position. This marks a significant moment for the Mets, who haven’t experienced such a standing since the days when a Rangers parade seemed imminent or the Knicks pushing the Celtics was on everyone’s mind.
The Mets showed strong form on Thursday with a 7-0 shutout victory. David Peterson navigated early trouble before Brandon Nimmo’s three-run double in the fifth inning propelled them forward. Nimmo acknowledged his hot streak, and his crucial hit contributed significantly to the Mets’ win.
The Mets’ recent success includes a solid bullpen performance and a bolstered lineup. Adam Ottavino escaped a bases-loaded jam in the ninth, while Phil Maton’s seamless seventh inning also stood out. As they approach more games against the Rockies and Marlins, the Mets hope to maintain this momentum, especially with Kodai Senga’s return on the horizon.
