Mets relievers David Patterson and Joely Rodriguez allowed four runs in the eighth and ninth innings, but Edwin Diaz was able to come in and shut down the door.

Pete Alonso was responsible for a three-run home run off Padres starter Joe Musgrove. He had four RBIs total on the night. It was his 25th home run of the season.

"You can't hit a five-run homer, and you can't hit a four-run single," Mets manager Buck Showalter said. "Sometimes you want something too much, and something like that might let you kind of get back into the flow of who you are."

On Tuesday, the Mets will host the Yankees.

"I wouldn't really call it toe to toe, me versus him," Alonso said. "This is a moment where the city can come together over the game of baseball."
