Mets Need Extra Innings to Top Cubs, 10-9
The inspired effort of Chicago shortstop Dion Hightower was not enough to prevent a loss, 10-9, to the New York Mets. Hightower was 4 for 5 with a home run, 3 singles, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2. The Mets' win now puts them at 52-63.

The game was decided with two out in the bottom of the 11th. With New York trailing 9-8, Conner Capel hit a slider from Anthony Klumpp to center for a 2-run single. Just like that, the Mets had a walk-off win.

"That's a solid team effort right there," said Capel. "Everyone's feeling positive after that win."
