Mets Sweep Phillies 4-3 in Walkoff Victory

The New York Mets completed a three-game sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies at Citi Field, winning the final game in walk-off fashion. The Phillies' struggles against the Mets have continued, with Philadelphia losing eight of their last ten games against their rivals, including a playoff elimination last season. The Mets showcased strong pitching and timely hitting throughout the series, maintaining a red-hot streak and leading the majors with a 2.37 ERA. Phillies' manager Rob Thomson expressed frustration over missed offensive opportunities and highlighted concerns after starting pitcher Cristopher Sanchez exited early due to injury. The Mets’ combination of effective pitching and clutch offense has contributed to their best start since 1988, while the Phillies face questions about their lackluster performance and ability to rebound.
