On Sunday, the Mets defeated the Padres by a score of 4-3, thanks in part to starting pitcher Matt Harvey who recorded a season-high ten strikeouts over six innings. Yoenis Cespedes also contributed with a home run for New York, and the team navigated a significant challenge in the eighth inning, escaping a bases-loaded situation with no outs.
