San Francisco Giants vs. New York Mets: Game Highlights

Mark Vientos, Bo Bichette and Francisco Lindor also went deep for the Mets, who scored 10 runs for the second consecutive game and matched their season high for homers. New York also connected five times May 14 against Detroit and Aug. 22 at the Chicago White Sox.

Rafael Devers homered, doubled twice and drove in five runs for the Giants in a series opener between disappointing teams.

The two-homer game was the third this season for Alvarez and the eighth of his career. The 24-year-old catcher also went deep twice to back a 10-3 win by McLean on April 3 in San Francisco.

Alvarez’s opposite-field drive in the second inning Friday was his first homer since Aug. 9. He batted just .125 (7 for 56) with two doubles in between.

Vientos’ three-run shot off rookie Matt Wilkinson (0-3) in the first was his second homer in four games since returning from a nearly two-month stint on the injured list due to a broken right hand.

Bichette homered to cap a four-run outburst in the second. He is batting .309 with 10 homers and 40 RBI in his last 78 games.

Lindor had two hits — his first multihit game since Aug. 25.

McLean (11-8) gave up two runs and six hits with seven strikeouts and four walks. He threw a career-high 105 pitches over six innings.

The rookie right-hander is 9-4 with a 2.24 ERA in his past 17 starts.

Devers hit a two-run double off McLean and a three-run homer off reliever Austin Warren. The slugger's 33 homers are the most by a Giants player since Barry Bonds had 45 in 2004.

Turner Hill added an RBI single for San Francisco.

Wilkinson allowed seven runs (four earned) and five hits in three innings.

Up next Giants RHP Anthony Molina (2-0, 3.77 ERA) faces Mets LHP Zac Thornton (3-4, 2.93) in the middle game of the series Saturday.
