And you go and remind yourself that you had a couple of those innings, too \u2026 what is tonight, [game] 50? We got a lot of baseball left. So far, so good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Luis Guillorme, Marte and Francisco Lindor also combined for eight hits and reached base 10 times from the top three slots in the lineup with regular leadoff man Brandon Nimmo missing his third straight game with a wrist injury. And Pete Alonso mashed his 13th home run of the season in the eighth \u2014 earning him chants of \u201cMVP\u201d \u2014 to cap the scoring for the Mets.<\/p>\n<p>Peterson needed 30 pitches to get through the first inning, allowing a two-run single to Josh Bell and a sacrifice fly by Lane Thomas for a quick 3-0 hole. But he zipped through the next three on just 29 pitches combined, as the Mets clubbed their way to a 12-3 lead through four against Washington starter Erick Fedde and the Nats\u2019 bullpen.<\/p>\n<p>The Mets responded to Washington\u2019s early three-spot with two runs in the home first, including a run-scoring single by Lindor to extend his streak with at least one RBI to eight games, the longest of his career. He also became the first Mets player with an RBI in eight straight games since both Carlos Beltran and Carlos Delgado accomplished the feat in 2006.<\/p>\n<p>Plummer stroked an RBI double to center and Marte clocked a two-run homer off Fedde, his fifth of the season, in a four-run second inning for a 6-3 Mets lead. Marte added a two-run single in the fourth, and Lindor followed with another RBI knock to give him 17 RBIs during his eight-game streak. He also reached 40 RBIs already this season, a figure he didn\u2019t reach in 2021 \u2014 his first with the Mets \u2014 until July 9.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/053022Mets48CW.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Mets\" class=\"wp-image-22468035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/053022Mets48CW.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/053022Mets48CW.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/053022Mets48CW.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Starling Marte and the Mets beat the Nationals on Monday.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Charles Wenzelberg \/ New York Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Early goals by Adam Fox and Chris Kreider (first of two) for the Rangers in Carolina generated more cheers when shown on the scoreboard in the early innings, as did another a while later by Ryan Strome.<\/p>\n<p>But the Citi fans grew even louder when Plummer cracked a homer for the second straight game, a three-run shot to left-center against reliever Austin Voth in the fourth. Plummer added a third hit, a single to center, in the sixth.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the hefty cushion, Peterson fell one out shy of completing the five innings necessary to be credited with a win, finishing with 88 pitches over 4 \u00b2\/\u2083 innings. The lefty walked two and permitted an RBI single to Bell for a 12-4 game before Colin Holderman replaced him for the final out of the inning.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
