Jeff McNeil lined Tom Cosgrove's first pitch of the 10th over the first base bag for an RBI double, and the visiting New York Mets scored four runs in the inning to earn a 7-5 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday night.

Starling Marte, who grounded into an inning-ending, bases-loaded double play in the ninth, scored easily on McNeil's double. Catcher Francisco Alvarez singled home McNeil with his fourth single of the game. Francisco Lindor capped the scoring with a two-out, two-run single off Brent Honeywell as the Mets scored a sixth straight win.

Manny Machado hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the 10th before David Robertson polished off the win for the Mets.

The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for the Padres, who are now 0-8 in extra-inning games this season.

Drew Smith (4-3) earned the win for the Mets. Cosgrove (1-2) took the loss.

Both the Mets' Justin Verlander and the Padres' Yu Darvish struggled at times in what was expected to be a pitchers' duel.

Verlander gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits and three walks with two strikeouts in six innings. Meanwhile, Darvish, who hadn't started since June 21 due to a bout of the flu, gave up three runs on seven hits and three walks with four strikeouts in five innings. Two of the walks issued by Darvish scored.

Offensively, Daniel Vogelbach and Lindor, who each finished with three hits, carried the early load for the Mets.

Brandon Nimmo opened the game with a walk, moved to second on a single by Tommy Pham, reached third when Pete Alonso was hit by a pitch and scored on an infield single by Vogelbach.

But the Padres scored twice in the bottom of the first. Machado hit a two-out RBI double, then scored when Mets third baseman Luis Guillorme booted Xander Bogaerts' grounder. The Padres made 3-1 in the bottom of the second when Gary Sanchez singled, reached second on a groundout to first and scored on Trent Grisham's double.

Lindor went the opposite way for his 19th homer of the season with two outs in the third to make it 3-2. He then drew a walk, stole second and scored on Vogelbach's game-tying single in the fifth.

The Padres ran their way out of a potential winning run in the seventh with the score tied 3-3. Ha-Seong Kim doubled with one out but was thrown out by left fielder Tommy Pham trying to stretch the hit into a triple. Juan Soto then doubled to left center, but was stranded at second when Fernando Tatis Jr. lined out.
