NEW YORK — \u2014 Pinch-hitter Dominic Smith<\/a> hit a tiebreaking RBI single against his former team in the 10th inning leading the San Francisco Giants<\/a> to a 4-3 win over the New York Mets<\/a> on Friday night.<\/p>\n

The victory snapped a six-game losing streak for the Giants, who dealt relievers Tyler Rogers<\/a> and Camilo Doval<\/a>, as well as outfielder Mike Yastrzemski<\/a>, prior to Thursday\u2019s trade deadline.<\/p>\n

The Mets overcame a 3-0 deficit to force extra innings before losing their fourth straight game and falling out of first place in the National League East. New York is a half-game behind Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Casey Schmitt<\/a> and Patrick Bailey<\/a> each had an RBI double and Jung Hoo Lee<\/a> added a run-scoring groundout before Pete Alonso<\/a> began the Mets\u2019 comeback with a homer in the seventh \u2014 the 249th of his career. Alonso is within three homers of Darryl Strawberry, who holds the franchise record at 252.<\/p>\n

The Mets tied the game in the eighth when Juan Soto<\/a> had an RBI single and Alonso lofted a sacrifice fly.<\/p>\n

But, Ryan Walker<\/a> (3-4) retired New York in order in the ninth and Smith, who spent the first six seasons of his career with the Mets, singled home automatic runner Willy Adames<\/a> with one out in the 10th.<\/p>\n

Randy Rodr\u00edguez worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the 10th by striking our Ronny Maurcio to earn his second save.<\/p>\n

Giants starter Robbie Ray<\/a> gave up one run in seven innings. Mets starter David Peterson<\/a> allowed two runs in six innings.<\/p>\n

Key moment <\/p>\n

Smith\u2019s go-ahead single gave him his first pinch-hit RBI of the season and the 24th of his career.<\/p>\n

Key stat <\/p>\n

Francisco Lindor<\/a>, who singled before Soto\u2019s RBI single, and Alonso had hits in the same game for just the 10th time in 42 games, dating to June 12. The two are batting a combined .191 (62-for-325) in that span.<\/p>\n

Up next <\/p>\n

The three-game series continues Saturday when Giants LHP Carson Whisenhunt<\/a> (0-0, 7.20 ERA) opposes Mets RHP Kodai Senga<\/a> (7-3, 2.00).<\/p>\n
