Mets Beat Pittsburgh, 6-5
Citi Field was the site of an exciting ballgame between the New York Mets and Pittsburgh Pirates.

New York beat Pittsburgh at Citi Field, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to catcher Francisco Alvarez. He was 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. James Sherfy earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2.1 innings. His record is now 1-0.

Alvarez contributed in the bottom of the fifth. With runners on 1st and 3rd, he hit a run-scoring single. It was one at-bat among others that helped New York get the win.

"Francisco is still learning," said Mets manager Renan Sato. "The sky's the limit for him."

Pittsburgh drops to 9-10.
