The New York Mets took the rubber game of the series in a 6-3 win over the Miami Marlins.
Pitching
Seth Lugo started the game and was solid until the sixth inning. He gave up a run in the fourth on a Giancarlo Stanton. He gave up a RBI Single to Martin Prado and had a wild pitch. He eventually got through the inning.
His final line was: 6 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 2 ER, BB, 4 K
Lugo has now won six straight road starts, tying a Mets franchise record with Tom Seaver and Jerry Koosman.
Jerry Blevins, Josh Edgin, and Addison Reed each threw a scoreless inning out of the pen.
Reed picked up his 12th save of the season and struck out two in the ninth inning.
Offense
The Mets scored two in the first and three in the third. T.J. Rivera and Jay Bruce drove in four of the five runs in those innings.
In the seventh, Matt Reynolds tripled to lead-off the inning and came home on a Curtis Granderson RBI groundout.
Bruce reached base three times, knocked in two and scored twice as well.
T.J. Rivera, getting the start at first base for the sick Lucas Duda, had three hits and drove in two runs.
Granderson collected his 300th double in the first inning, making him one of eight active players with 300 doubles and 300 home runs.

The Mets come home to take on the Phillies at 7:10 tomorrow night with Jacob deGrom on the mound.
