The Mets hit back-to-back homers for the first time this season on Tuesday, when Justin Turner and David Wright took Rodriguez deep in the first inning. It marked Wright's sixth 20-homer season, tying Mike Piazza for second most all time in Mets history. Darryl Strawberry holds the record with eight.
Wright also tied Ed Kranepool for most hits in franchise history at 1,418 later in the game.
In half the time it took Kranepool to do it as well.
