Four outs stood between manager Carlos Mendoza’s crew and an embarrassing series loss to the Marlins when Pete Alonso decided to awaken the masses.

Pete Alonso launched a three-run homer that tied the score with two outs in the eighth inning and the New York Mets scored twice in the 11th to beat the Miami Marlins 6-5.

In the top of the 11th, the Mets loaded the bases on right-hander Xzavion Curry with no outs. Jesse Winker drew a four-pitch walk to take back the lead for the Mets. Mark Vientos, whose third-inning error resulted in the go-ahead run for Miami, hit a chopper to shortstop Xavier Edwards, who fumbled it for an error himself.

The Mets pitching staff ranked fourth in the majors last season with a collective 9.1 strikeouts per nine innings. The Marlins had the 29th-ranked ERA (4.73) in the majors last season. Ahead of the Mets vs. Marlins matchup, here's what you need to get ready for Tuesday's baseball action, including viewing options.

Last night, Sandy Alcantara pitched five innings of three-hit ball and earned his first win in over a year as the Marlins too down the Mets, 4-2. Miami picked up just three hits but it was enough as the Mets’ offense could not get on track against the Cy Young winner and the Marlins’ bullpen.
