Phillies vs. Mets Game Highlights (6/1/23) | MLB Highlights

The Mets go for the sweep of the Phillies the Mets have now won seven straight home games all by three or fewer runs. It's not as two for nine in this series and six for seven against Scherzer with the double pitch seven terrific innings in Colorado Friday through a season high seven innings and one hundred and two pitches and hoping to give the Mets something like that today to to to start and he blew him away with a fastball and Scherzer has his three thousand two hundred and thirty third career strikeout twelfth on the all time list and now facing Trey Turner oddly for the first time ever. Now there were teammates in Washington and teammates in Los Angeles. There's a ball down the left field line. That's a fair ball off the tarp Turner's around first and he's going to put the brakes on as Canada gets to it quickly. Shaman hit that tarp out of an easy double possibly triple for Trey Turner. Yeah one out single now. So now Bryce Harper with a runner at first Harper is six for 20 against his former teammate Harper went two for four last night after sitting in the opening game of the series and ball four. So the Phillies have two on with one out here in the first again they've been limited as far as their first inning runs go on this road trip. They have thirty three for the year and now Castellanos with runners at first and second runners go pitch take it outside throw to third goes into left field. Turner gets uphill head home Harper goes to third and the Phillies score first inning run. They lead it one nothing. Love it. Manufacture something outstanding. Knowing that Scherzer already used one of his disengagements some ill advised throw here by Alvarez. No chance they get Turner there just eat it here in the first inning with one man down one nothing Phillies fly ball left center field that's deep going back out of his Nimmo he's on the track to make the catch tagging from third is Harper it's a long sack fly and the Phillies take a two nothing lead. It's 0 and 1 to Schwarzer. This is his month back to back June players of the month for Schwarzer Canada has to come in and make the catch because Lindoor just didn't see it. But fortunately Canada was able to come in and really win it. The Phillies get two runs. They do so with one hit. There was one big error. We go to the last of the first inning here at Citi Field. Now the Mets have been out scored in first innings this year forty five to 13. That's a one seven straight home games and they go up against their old mate Taiwan Walker today. You know we saw this at the end of his time with the Mets. He's not striking out a lot of hitters and a liner out to left field right at Schwarzer. He had to move Lindoor 0 for four last night batting to twenty three ten home runs 40 RBI eyes liner to center field Marsh will go back and reaches up at the last moment and makes the catch false jump in today a little bit. The Mets have got good swings against Walker. Here's Jeff McNeil one for six in this series ground ball right side. Clements has got it. Walker absolutely off the mound quickly three one on the putout side is retired in order Mets again 13 runs all year long in the first inning of games second inning. Brandon Marsh leads off against Max Scherzer March two for seven in this series. First innings have not been pleasant for the Mets this year half swing roller out to McNeil and it's quite the cutter that completely jammed Brandon Marsh. Here's Cody Clemens Clemens hitting two sixty eight one two pitch swallowing on and miss strike three Scherzer will embrace that ninety five mile an hour fastball that punches out the son of a guy who punched out a whole lot of him himself as Roger Clemens can't Cody Clemens who's down on strike. So two up two down now Sosa's the batter Sosa one for four over the home run in this series to two on the way swung on and miss strike three got him with a fastball away at ninety six as he's dialed it up to his highest velocity of the day and gets the side in order three strikeouts for Max middle of the second Phillies two Mets nothing a Walker the great ground ball pitcher has picked up back to back roundouts here's Nemo for three oh high and away ball for Nemo earns a four pitch walk and sprints down to first base nothing Phillies bottom three two outs runner at first had some quick outs here walk Nemo though on four pitches three one that's high as well ball for back to back freebies Nemo he's down at second and Lindor is now walked he's at first Taiwan Walker has walked three Mets today does not have any strikeouts as McNeil who grabbed it out his first time up two on two and two to McNeil and he lies one to right center field coming on as Marsh and he can't make the catch it's in for a hit coming home to score his demo going to third is Lindor it's an RBI single for Jeff McNeil to get the Mets on the board it's down to the one McNeil make some pay now Alonzo trying to deepen the damage here comes the pitch swing and a miss put him away with ninety four extra giddy up on that fastball for Taiwan Walker it's his first punch out but the Mets score their first run one run one hit couple of walks and two left and in his fourth frame two to one Phillies lead in Queens one away sacrifice fly for Castellanos his last time up oh helicopter coming in very affordable as it goes into the dugout incoming and right down the tunnel we know he's walking out from the clubhouse that is true Mets grab the sticks as we go to the bottom of the fourth inning it's two to one Philadelphia last time around Taiwan Walker gave up a run in the third inning after two scoreless frames Johnny Marte stands in he only started to get hit by a splitter that didn't split Marte has been kind of how many times has he been hit now he's been hit twice on the hand. Yeah that's his fifth overall that ties it for the club lead with McNeil. Here's Mark Canna who provided a lot more last night with four ribbies and kind of drives one out to left field Schwarzer takes a look at that ball is out of here Mark Canna strikes again a two run homer to put the Mets in front three to two home runs in back to back games for Mark Canna his fifth of the year and it's three to two New York. We go to the last of the sixth inning Mets three Phillies to Brett Beatty leads off against lefty Matt Straub line to left center field. Beatty's got a base in and that's going to go all the way back to the wall. So Brett Beatty continues to hold his own against left handers his sixth double of the year and it comes leading off the bottom of the six. Now starting Marte was hit in the back by a pitch his last time up. Nobody up in the Phillies bullpen. Straub a guy who gives them multiple innings. Ronnie mentioned he was starting earlier this year and Marte drops down a bunch Stubbs hops out on it and his throw to first is in time to get Marte. That'll be a sacrifice for Marte moving Beatty over to third. He's bringing their infield in to face Viento's Viento's drives at the center field marshes there to grab it taking a third Beatty he can walk on in the Viento's making a hard contact on three and two drills at the center for a sacrifice fly to make it four to two New York. Well done. Big league at bat right there. All the Mets are unbeaten this year when their starter goes six Scherzer working into the seventh for the second straight starting for all you doubters out there. I don't think Max Scherzer is over the hill folks. I think he has just took him a while to get in the groove and he is got a lot left in the tank. Here comes Scherzer rumbling home to to swing and a miss. Put him away with ninety three miles an hour eight strikeouts now for Scherzer Cody Clemens the son of Roger Clemens 0 for two today. Here comes a one one to Cody popped up foul ground behind home plate Alvarez chugging after it near the warning track has just enough room and makes the catch with his belt nearly on the brick wall behind the plate near the front row. Another out for Max Scherzer has really been the thriving player for the game today. Again the O2 struck him out came upstairs to strikeout Sosa nine strikeouts and seven terrific innings for Max Scherzer third hit of the night of the afternoon for Castellanos and Schwarmer will come to the plate as the tying run three to again at a strike three call it was off the plate with the home plate on fire. Trip Gibson called it a strike with two outs and a runner at first Drew Ellis will make his Phillies debut and Ellis flies one to shallow center coming on as Nemo and the ball game is over. Drew Smith throws one pitch gets the same Max Scherzer seven strong innings for the win another home run for Mark Canha and the Mets sweep the three game series from the Phillies winning today four to two.
