Pete Alonso homered again and the Mets beat the Rays on Thursday to post consecutive wins for the first time in a month.
They won a series for the first time since taking two of three at the Los Angeles Dodgers from April 17-19.
Josh Lowe homered for Tampa Bay, which has dropped four of six. Lowe and Arozarena each had two hits, and Harold Ramírez drove in a run with a fielder's choice in the first."Two or three games didn't go our way," Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash said."We were close a couple but close doesn't necessarily cut it. Frustrating."
Alonso also put New York in front in the series finale, driving a 1-2 fastball from rookie Taj Bradley 446 feet to center in the fourth. The big first baseman homered for the third straight game for the second time this season, giving him 16 on the year."I just don't want me not feeling well to be an excuse for a lack of performance," Alonso said."So, for me I want to approach it how I normally do and just go out there and play as best I can and as hard as I can.
After Lowe hit a tying homer in the sixth, the Mets had runners at first and third when Brett Baty followed Alonso's warning-track fly ball with a single.
