The Pittsburgh Pirates kept it close with the New York Mets at Citi Field, but would drop the series opener, 4-3 on a walk-off. Pittsburgh makes it 2-2 since manager Don Kelly took over on May 8, after they won two out of three games against the Atlanta Braves last weekend,

David Peterson matched the Pirates' ace and the Mets recovered from a blown lead in the top of the 9th to win it.

Pete Alonso hit a game-winning sacrifice fly in the ninth inning and the New York Mets took advantage of a costly error by shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-3.
