The Phillies opened up a critical three games series with the Mets by getting closer to elimination with a 5-4 loss on Friday night. The Mets took a 1-0 lead on a Jeff McNeil RBI single in the third, and went up 2-0 on a Michael Conforto (29) home run in the fourth. J.T. Realmuto’s RBI double in the fifth, and Maikel Franco’s RBI single tied the game 2-2. The Mets took a 4-2 lead in the eighth inning. J.T. Realmuto tied it 4-4 in the ninth with a two run homer. Unfortunately Nick Vincent walked Pete Alonso with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth, and the Mets escaped with the walk off win.
