PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Pete Alonso homered, J.D. Martinez hit a go-ahead single in the 11th inning and the New York Mets overcame another blown save by Edwin Díaz, avoiding a four-game sweep in a home-and-home set with a 6-5 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday night.

Starling Marte had two hits for the Mets, who followed a closed-door meeting held by rookie manager Carlos Mendoza on Wednesday night by winning their second game in the last seven.

“The guys continued to battle,” Mendoza said. “Overall, what a great team win.”

Kyle Schwarber and Alec Bohm hit RBI doubles for the major league-leading Phillies (31-14), who lost for only the fourth time in 20 games. Philadelphia is 10 games ahead of the Mets in the NL East.

“We were resilient the whole night and kept trying to find a way to come back,” Schwarber said. “We just weren’t able to get that big one at the end. New one tomorrow.”
