Sets franchise rookie record Saturday Benge went 3-for-4 with a walk, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Saturday's 10-3 win over the Phillies.

Impact The 23-year-old outfielder put his name in the franchise record book with the performance, as Benge now has 156 hits on the year -- topping the 155 knocks recorded by Pete Alonso in 2019 for the most ever in a season by a Mets rookie. Benge has cooled off a bit in September, and over 17 games this month he's batting .269 (18-for-67) with three of his 19 homers, and three of his 22 steals.

Snaps homer drought Saturday Benge went 2-for-5 with a home run and an additional RBI against the Yankees in a 12-2 victory Saturday.

Impact The Mets hit three homers off Gerrit Cole, capped by Benge's solo shot in the third inning. The long ball was the rookie outfielder's first in his past 18 games, a stretch during which he batted just .246 with a 27.0 percent strikeout rate. Benge has experienced typical ups-and-downs in his first MLB campaign, but he's held onto a starting job and has put together solid numbers, including a .273/.337/.414 slash line, 17 home runs, 19 doubles, three triples, 76 runs, 57 RBI and 22 stolen bases.
