NEW YORK (AP) – Pete Alonso hit his 250th career homer, Francisco Lindor drove in four runs and the New York Mets beat the San Francisco Giants 12-6 on Saturday to end a four-game losing streak.<\/p>\n

Alonso hit a 427-foot, three-run blast in the first inning to pull within two of Darryl Strawberry’s franchise record. The Giants scored the next four runs before Brandon Nimmo – who drove in three runs – and Lindor each had run-scoring singles in the fourth and sixth.<\/p>\n

Nimmo extended New York\u00b4s lead with an RBI single in the seventh and Lindor followed with a two-run double for the Mets, who moved a half-game ahead of Philadelphia in the NL East.<\/p>\n

Reed Garrett (3-4), the first of five New York relievers, retired all four batters he faced.<\/p>\n

Tyler Rogers, making his Mets debut after being acquired from the Giants on Wednesday, allowed one hit in the seventh.<\/p>\n

Right-hander Kodai Senga allowed four runs in four innings.<\/p>\n

Former Mets first baseman Dominic Smith and Willy Adames hit two-run homers for the Giants. Grant McCray had a run-scoring single in the fourth.<\/p>\n

Kai-Wei Teng (0-1) gave up five runs in 3 1\/3 innings in his debut in the majors.<\/p>\n

With one out and the score tied in the fifth, Lindor laid down a bunt to first base, where Smith whirled to second before realizing no one was covering. Brett Baty scored easily as Lindor legged out the single.<\/p>\n

Senga has allowed at least three runs in each of his last three starts and has a 6.19 ERA in four starts since coming off the injured list July 11.<\/p>\n

The teams conclude their second straight weekend series Sunday, with Mets RHP Frankie Montas (3-1, 5.46 ERA) set to start against LHP Carson Whisenhunt (0-0, 7.20 ERA).<\/p>\n
