The gist
The Mets beat the Marlins 15-14 on Sep 9, 2026.
The win kept a late-season surge alive before the Mets' four-game streak ended against the Yankees.
Background
The Mets were 68-78 and fourth in the NL East after the Sep 9 win, while the Marlins sat 72-75. The 15-14 game at loanDepot park was a slugfest: the teams combined for 29 runs, 35 hits and 49 baserunners, and MLB Gameday noted it was not for those who love good pitching. The Mets then had their four-game winning streak stopped by the Yankees, who won for the 17th time in 24 games.
