Lindor carried the Mets' offense with power throughout the afternoon. His second homer, a grand slam, brought home A.J. Ewing, Luis Torrens and Nick Morabito and gave the visitors their biggest surge of the game.
Lindor's first-inning homer gave the Mets the lead. Luis Torrens then homered with Jared Young scoring, while Carson Benge added a homer in the third. After Juan Soto homered in the seventh, Torrens doubled to bring Marcus Semien home in the eighth, and Lindor's grand slam sent three more runners across the plate.
The Yankees got their offense from Cody Bellinger, who singled home Paul Goldschmidt before homering later in the game. Gerrit Cole was charged with the loss as New York struggled to contain the Mets' steady power attack.
The Mets extended their winning streak, while the Yankees' losing streak continued. The one-inning burst in the eighth gave the game its final shape and left New York searching for answers.
