The Mets Beat KC 9-3 in Game 3 of the World Series

The Mets certainly did not want to fall behind 3-0 so this was a must win situation. The bats finally came to life as David Wright and Curtis Granderson hit home runs to highlight a 9-3 victory. Noah Syndergaard pitched well but had to be taken out after the 6th inning. Bullpen performances by Addison Reed, Tyler Clippard, and Jeurys Familia were perfect as the Mets held on to win.

Game Recap

The Mets are still trailing in the series 2-1. Steven Matz pitches tonight while Matt Harvey is scheduled for game 5 on Sunday. In any event the Mets will have to win one game in Kansas City if they are to take the series.
