Mets' Francisco Lindor Hits From Both Sides, Spurs 4-2 Rockies Win

Francisco Lindor led the New York Mets to a 4-2 victory over the Colorado Rockies by hitting home runs from both sides of the plate, marking his 21st career multi-homer game and tying him with Derek Jeter for fourth-most homers by a player who spent at least 60% of his career at shortstop. Lindor's performance, which included three hits in four at-bats and two RBI, helped the Mets improve to a 35-22 record and maintain their strong position in the NL East. The Mets have now won 25 consecutive regular season games when Lindor homers, tying for the second-longest such streak since 1900. Both Lindor and teammate Juan Soto, who also broke a recent slump with a key RBI double, credited ongoing adjustments and support from coaches for their resurgence. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza highlighted Lindor's improved swing mechanics and health as factors in his success. The win came as the Mets bounced back from recent struggles, with solid pitching from David Peterson and effective bullpen work limiting the Rockies' offense.
