A pair of slumping Mets at the bottom of the order delivered the biggest swings on Thursday to send them out on top.
No. 8 hitter J.D. Davis crushed a grand slam and No. 9 hitter James McCann added a three-run shot to lead the way in the Mets’ 10-0 win over the Marlins at Citi Field.
But the designated hitter blew the game open in the fifth inning with his first career grand slam, putting the Mets up 10-0. Williams, meanwhile, retired the first seven batters he faced before Miguel Rojas doubled with one out in the third inning. But the right-hander quickly returned to dominance from there, retiring the next 13 batters he faced before allowing a two-out single in the seventh inning.
