Maybe the National League East is up for grabs after all. For the second time in as many nights, the Mets beat the Phillies, walking them off on a Brandon Nimmo single with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth in a 6-5 victory.

Neither team scored until the fifth inning, but the Phillies got on the board first as they chased Mets starter Sean Manaea from the game in the top of the fifth before Bryce Harper drove in a pair of runs off Gregory Soto, both of which were charged to Manaea. But the Mets answered quickly and loudly in the bottom of the inning, as they scored five runs against Phillies starter Jesús Luzardo and reliever Orion Kerkering.

Juan Soto got things started with an RBI single off Luzardo, and later in the inning, a two-run double by Pete Alonso gave the Mets the lead. Mark Vientos singled in the team’s fourth run of the night, and Brandon Nimmo hit a sac fly to plate the Mets’ fifth run of the inning.

Huascar Brazobán gave up a run in the top of the sixth, but Tyler Rogers threw a scoreless seventh to keep the Mets ahead by two. Unfortunately, Ryan Helsley’s miserable stint since joining the Mets continued in the eighth, and he served up a game-tying two-run home run to Harrison Bader.

Thankfully, Edwin Díaz had one of his best outings of the season, as he took over for Helsley in the eighth and got out of the inning with the game still tied with a pair of strikeouts. And he retired the Phillies in order—facing Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper, and J.T. Realmuto—in the ninth to keep the game tied at five.

Four consecutive singles did the trick for the Mets in the bottom of the ninth, with Starling Marte, Alonso, Brett Baty, and Nimmo coming through with the four hits that combined to win the game.
