The Mets snapped a two-game skid and avoided getting swept for what would have been the ninth time this season.
The Mets proactively delayed the start of Sunday’s game almost four hours, but at least capped the extended day with a celebration.
It came after heavy rain in the forecast forced the Mets to move their scheduled 1:40 p.m. first pitch to 5:30.Trevor Gott, in his home debut for the Mets, was entrusted a 1-0 lead in the eighth and walked James Outman leading off the inning before Miguel Rojas delivered a bloop single to right. But Robertson, the team’s bullpen MVP this season, struck out Outman to give the Mets a clean shot at the win in the bottom of the frame.
Jason Heyward’s ground-ball single past third base in the second inning accounted for the Dodgers’ only hit against the right-hander, who enjoyed the rebound performance after allowing two homers to Manny Machado that sunk the Mets in the last game before the All-Star break.Brett Baty can’t come up with a popup at third base hit by Max Muncy of the Los Angeles Dodgers in the ninth inning.
Nimmo continues to hit the ball with authority: he homered Saturday after the previous night hitting a shot off the top of the right-field fence that was originally called a homer before replay changed it to a double.Corey Sipkin for the NY POSTCorey Sipkin for the NY POST
