Mets’ Lindor Come Through in a Pinch with Two-Run Double in Ninth

Francisco Lindor hit a pinch-hit, two-run double in the ninth inning on Friday night at Coors Field, leading the Mets to a 4-2 win over the Rockies.
Lindor played despite nursing a broken right pinky toe sustained on Wednesday after being hit by an 89 mph slider from Dodgers' Tony Gonsolin.
He pinch-hit for Tyrone Taylor with two outs and a tied score, seeing only two pitches before sending a cutter from Rockies closer Zach Agnos into right field.
This was Lindor’s first career go-ahead pinch-hit RBI and the hit ended Colorado’s three-game winning streak while extending the Mets’ streak over the Rockies to six games.
The Mets improved to a 40-24 record, and manager Carlos Mendoza expressed optimism that Lindor might return to the starting lineup soon, despite the pain.
