srino this year he has been at his best best in his 14 starts at City Field this year 6 and2 ra a smidge under three and the fast ball got him looking put it in the same spot as the previous pitch and serino's got a strike out to start his day and that will bring up the rather exciting El De La Cruz the short stop switch hitter batting left he pops this one up into shallow left Center cutting across as Bader and with nmo P makes the catch nmo ducking away at the last moment and that's the second out so two out nobody on and Spencer steer the left fielder coming up the pitch breaking ball pulled on the ground towards third to his left fantos up with it throws across in time side retired it's start by seino needs only 13 pitches to get the Reds in order for the Reds The Rook Julian agar he gets his fourth start of the year in four of his major league career agar came up made his debut in Toronto and kind of getting learning on the job lessons here for agar the MVP chants are loud early from Endor Andor has now been aboard in 35 consecutive games pitch swung on popped up high into the air short right coming on the right fielder fry he will call off the center fielder Benson who lost it in the sun momentarily but fry had it all the way and he'll make the catch so Lindor is the first out that's trying to win their 10th straight something that they have not done since they won 11 straight in 2015 here's the pitch Nimo swing sends a Fly ball toward the line and left steer will fade that way and make the catch just before Crossing into foul territory Mark viento standing in now now the 10 pitch Vientos lines it sharply right at Ellie De La Cruz he'll make the catch and the inning is over second inning Ty France leads off for the Reds and flies one out to right Starling Marte coming on makes the catch one pitch one out for srino in the second San dieago espanol who's the next hitter here's the 2-2 breaking ball swung out and missed strike three got him with a sweeper side retired nothing across and in the middle of the second the Red's nothing the Mets nothing he walks Alonzo to begin the second the Mets get their first man on Jesse Winker a bun agar handles shovel to First just late two gone here in the second inning and now Starling Marte swinging bunt Tapper out in front of the plate picked up by agar he will fire in time to first to get the out on Starling Marte Mets on a nine game winning streak the most they've ever ever won consecutively 11 straight games taken dead aim at that Keith two two breaking ball got him looking front door the breaking ball that time and so as Marte kicked the hips back thinking that pitch was going to hit him it took a last second Bend to the inside corner and got him looking one out walk in this scoreless game top three and it'll bring up the catcher Luke mey he hits one sharply bentos the diving stop adjusts and throws to First and gets the out there tremendous play by viento who wanted to go to second but Benson was arriving and so he made the adjustment while on his knees and threw out melee for the second out so a runner in scoring position for Jonathan India little Looper shallow Right Center on comes Bader to get there side retired Mets in the bottom of the third each team looking for their first hit and he drives this one to right center field and that's down for a base hit C off nicely by Benson and he holds Bader to a single so it looks like Harrison has found something the last couple days lead off batter Francisco Lindor one OutRunner on first base bottom of the third we are scoreless and here come the MVP chance once again Lindor tops right side India gathers fire tough angle D Cruz relay late it's a heck of a job to get the lead man in Bader what a throw by India with a sliding Bader burying into the bag all right back to work now and this one slice the other way it's a Lazy Fly ball that Spencer steer will come in and glove for out number three here's Ty France 02 bouncing ball off saverino's glove pops it up to himself and throws to first for the out Luis srino who just a couple of days ago led the national league in defensive run save gets an out at the mound first man reached by a walk second hit by pitch so two on and nobody out Jesse Winker is the going to be the batter chop to agar flipped to third Marte hits the bag they get the lead man in viento oh the temptation of going to third base is just too overwhelming there for agar and that's a double play ball all the way if he asks himself ahead of time what am I doing with the ball coming right back to me he the temptation to get that lead Runner sometimes for the pitcher is so overwhelm and you can't resist now two down darling Marte two two offering on the ground De La Cruz to his right off balance throw to get Marte at first base so after the first two reach agar Works around trouble in the fourth and nicely done Bradley lined out second base's first time up the fourth time this year serino's gotone through the first four Innings without giving up a hit and that's a soft liner that Vientos can't get to and it rolls into the Outfield fr's going to try for second and he'll make it easily a very Strang looking hit for Jake fry and he's got a double to start the fifth inning well that's one of the ugliest hits I've seen in quite some time so there's here's the first hit against srino and here's espanol Fly ball shallow right on comes Marte it's going to drop for a base hit Frey pulls in at third so two very soft hits for the Reds as espanol dumps one into shallow right and Cincinnati has first and third and nobody out snap throw espanol barely plunges back in cleanly o oh that was close might have they want to look at it I got to look at that one yep Mets are going to challenge that's an out I mean there should be no doubt Dan I Sonia and Ron colur at the crew chiefs in the replay centers call on the field is overturned the runner is out yor now the infield can come in with Fry at third and one away two and two to Marte struck him out got him with a slider two men down so fueled by the pickoff srino has a path through the inning friendley at third with two out the infield able to drop back now onew pitch swung on and Miss strike three he did it Lis sevino really threw no fault of his own soft contact two hits first and third nobody out a pickoff and two strikeouts later and he gets out of trouble two hits for each team no runs two hits no errors identically across the board Now seino deals breaking ball swung on and Miss strike three got him with a sweeper six strikeouts for sevino one two pitch swung on and Miss strike three India swings at the change up comes up with air and sever Marino was struck out four in a row two out and with steer the B Fly ball shallow left long run for nmo but he'll get there side retire now glacius who struck out and fly out 0 for two and he hits one toward the Middle with a diamond one down by De Cruz goes to second but throws it away and everybody's safe and the Mets have Runners at first and second two out and Starling Marte coming up and he lights one in the center field for a base hit Alonzo around third heading home Benes throw the plate not in time Marte with the big hit gives the Mets the sixth inning lead he's driven home the first run of the game the Mets are leading by a score of one to nothing swing in a Miss he struck him out with a cutter down on strikes teren the Met strand two in scoring position but they get one and break the scoreless tie now lead it one to nothing Luis srino pitching with the lead for the first time today he face Tai France Jake fry and Santiago espinal one two to France and a half sway goes behind the mound and he's going to be able to beat this out for an infield hit with a little wedge shot beyond the reach of srino and France is aboard to start the top of the seven boy they have some hits today don't they ESP spol had a bloop single to WR as last time runner into scoring position with one out 32 struck him out High heater gets the foul tip so two out down to weie Marte first pitch broken B contact to right Marte won't get

be the end of the day for srino two and two here's the pitch Benson Strikes Out Swinging another splitter the Batters Brandon nmo Lefty Lefty matchup two outs nobody on the one to nmo floated in the air behind third Marte going out Dela Cruz cutting over Del Cruz lunging makes the catch and falls from Fair into foul territory what a snag it was impressive too because he took his eyes off the ball at the last second to see if Marte was going to catch it then look back up still in stride and made a diving catch though maton will come on for the first time in this series well after appearing five times in seven days he had four days off hasn't pitched since the fourth steer is at third and France is at second and the meican have to move the infield in right hand hitting Santiago Espen all the batter a one to one game here in the ninth that's to left field base hit steer scores France around third he scores espedal up to Second and a 3-1 lead for the Reds well not a shot for mton hit the
