Francisco Lindor hit a go-ahead homer to start a four-run eighth inning and the New York Mets beat the Chicago Cubs 6-2 to avoid losing their second home series this season.

The Mets finally stopped hitting the snooze button for Sunday’s early start time at the beginning of the eighth inning.

NEW YORK — Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong and left fielder Seiya Suzuki sped toward the wall at Citi Field, trying to chase down a sharp fly ball hit between them by the Mets’ Luis Torrens in the second inning Sunday. Crow-Armstrong got there first, jumping into the padding and missing the ball by inches.
