PITTSBURGH \u2014 Seth Lugo and Edwin Diaz weren\u2019t available a day after both relievers got bludgeoned by the Pirates, so the Mets turned to others for big outs Sunday.<\/p>\n

That meant Trevor May working a scoreless ninth for his second save after Drew Smith, Miguel Castro, Aaron Loup and Jeurys Familia combined on 7 \u00b2\/\u2083 shutout innings.<\/p>\n

The left-hander Loup continued his magic by pitching the fifth and sixth inning scoreless, escaping a bases-loaded jam with nobody out in the later frame by striking out three straight batters against the top of the batting order.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Loup] was essential for this win,\u201d manager Luis Rojas said after the Mets beat the Pirates, 7-6, at PNC Park. \u201cThis guy is throwing the ball so well this season and he had to come in a little early, but he did a fine job for us and May came in and close the door.\u201d<\/p>\n

A night earlier, Lugo and Diaz combined to allow nine runs over the final two innings in the Mets\u2019 9-7 loss. Sunday\u2019s Herculean bullpen effort was needed after Taijuan Walker got removed in the first inning with the Mets behind, 6-0.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had told Tai after he came out of the game<\/a>, before we made it down to the bullpen, that we were going to pick him up and not to worry about it,\u201d Loup said. \u201cAt the time I loaded the bases I told myself, \u2018We\u2019re getting back in the game, the offense picked us up, it\u2019s 6-4 and we can\u2019t go down like this.\u2019 I managed to make some good pitches and squeak out of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jerad Eickhoff will start Monday\u2019s game in Cincinnati. The right-hander last pitched on July 11, when he surrendered two earned runs over 2 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings against the Pirates at Citi Field. Eickhoff\u2019s biggest issue this season has been keeping the ball in the park \u2014 he has allowed six homers in 12 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings.<\/p>\n

Rojas did not announce a starter for Tuesday against the Reds, but indicated at least one more arm could be arriving from Trip<\/a>le-A Syracuse. The Mets have an opening on the 26-man roster after Jacob deGrom was placed on the injured list.<\/p>\n

Carlos Carrasco has been throwing between starts, according to Rojas, but the manager said he didn\u2019t have any information yet on where the right-hander\u2019s next rehab app<\/a>earance will occur. Carrasco threw two innings for Single-A Brooklyn on Thursday in his first rehab start.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
