The Mets found a convenient workaround to avoid hitting with runners in scoring position: Just hit home runs instead. They hit seven against the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday night, including three in a row off rookie right-hander Mick Abel in the third inning en route to an 11-4 win Saturday at Citizens Bank Park.

The New York Mets needed just 12 days at the start of June to open a 5 1/2-game lead over the Philadelphia Phillies. It took only eight days for the lead to evaporate. The Mets will attempt to climb back into a tie for first place in the National League East on Saturday night when they play the second contest of their three-game series against the host Philadelphia Phillies.
