04/07 18:58 CDT Mauricio lifts Mets over Diamondbacks 4-3 in 10 innings with pinch-hit single in return to majors Mauricio lifts Mets over Diamondbacks 4-3 in 10 innings with pinch-hit single in return to majors By JERRY BEACH Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) --- Pinch-hitter Ronny Mauricio returned to the majors by lining a game-winning single in the 10th inning that gave the New York Mets a 4-3 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. New York (7-4) won its fourth straight game and improved to 2-2 in extra innings already this season. Mauricio, recalled Monday from Triple-A Syracuse when slugger Juan Soto was placed on the injured list, laced an 0-2 pitch from Paul Sewald (0-2) over the head of right fielder Corbin Carroll to drive in automatic runner Francisco Lindor from third base with one out. Mauricio threw off his helmet and ran into center field before being caught by teammates, who mobbed him and doused him with water. Luke Weaver (1-0) pitched a perfect 10th for the Mets, who played their third straight extra-inning game at home. New York beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-2 in 11 innings on March 28 and lost 4-3 in 10 innings the next day. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb
