After working a 3-1 count, Lindor saw a hanging sweeper and capitalized on it, driving it deep into the Mets’ bullpen to give New York a 3-2 lead. Crossing home plate, Lindor was demonstrative, pounding his chest and shouting into his dugout, drawing pumped reactions from his teammates.

The New York Mets won their second straight series with Sunday's 6-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs, thanks to many contributors on both sides of the ball. Mark Vientos hit a homer and an RBI single, while Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo also went yard.

Francisco Lindor hit a go-ahead homer to start a four-run eighth inning and the New York Mets beat the Chicago Cubs 6-2 to avoid losing their second home series this season.
