Mets Facts — June 18, 2024

Six Mets hitters had two or more hits in yesterday’s 14-2 win over Texas Rangers, led by Lindor’s four hits.

The Mets’ record is nine batters getting more than two hits in a game, done in 2018 in a 14-2 win over the San Diego Padres.

Unfortunately, the Mets haven’t always won the games in which they had a number of batters getting multiple hits. One such loss occurred earlier this year against the Miami Marlins on May 18.

Going into the bottom of the ninth, the Mets were ahead 9-5; then, the bullpen folded. In the game, six Mets batters had at least two hits.

For stat buffs, the MLB record for most multi-hit batters in a game for one team is 10, first set in 1922 by the Pirates and then repeated in 1925 by the New York Giants, both games against the Phillies.
