On Monday night, Francisco Alvarez made his return after spending nearly a month with Triple-A Syracuse and a big double and scored two runs. Juan Soto tied the game with a two-run single in the bottom of the seventh inning and Brett Baty scored the go-ahead run on a ground ball to the left side one inning later.

Brett Baty, Francisco Alvarez and Ronny Mauricio have spent the last two games providing evidence the New York Mets might not need to look outside the organization for difference-making offensive players prior to the July 31 trade deadline.
