I chose this game because I don’t know where we would have been by the end without it. The Mets were 61-62, having lost the first two games to the Wild-Card-leading Giants but rebounding on the backs of a returning-from-DL Yoenis Cespedes and Asdrubal Cabrera to handily take Saturday’s game.

The four-game series hung in the balance with the Mets desperate for wins if they were to stay in this thing. And they did stay in it. Then some.

I apologize in advance for that non-SNY network on the highlights.
