New York Mets batters put on a historic performance Friday to keep their season alive for at least one more game.
With their backs against the wall, trailing 3-1 in the NLCS, the Mets crushed the Dodgers 12-6 in Game 5 at Citi Field in Queens, N.Y.
The Mets had a whopping 14 hits to score a dozen runs in the contest after being limited to just two combined runs in Games 3 and 4.
The most amazing part of the victory was the fact that the Mets didn’t have a single strikeout in the contest. They became the first team to achieve that feat in a postseason game since 2002 and just the 11th team in MLB history, per MLB’s Sarah Langs.
