Mets Rally to Top Giants 4-1 Behind Verlander
Justin Verlander fired seven solid innings for his first win in nearly six weeks as the Mets defeated the San Francisco Giants 4-1. Francisco Alvarez slugged the first of three early homers, followed by back-to-back shots from Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Lindor. Tommy Pham added an RBI double, and New York opened July with a much needed win to improve to 37-46 while San Francisco dropped to 46-37. The only Giants run came on a small ball play after a Pete Alonso error.
