After the Padres won the first two of the four-game series matching two of the N.L.’s best teams, the Mets bounced back deGrom and solo homers by Lindor and Jose Peraza in the fifth off Joe Musgrove (4-5). “He ended up missing his slider and I was able to take advantage of it,” Peraza said of his home run against Musgrove. Jonathan Villar singled in a run before Hill worked out of the inning. The Mets added a run in the ninth when Lindor doubled and scored on a single by Pillar. San Diego’s Jurickson Profar was ejected in the eighth inning after slamming his bat on the ground after a called third strike.
