Here is the Mets’ announced lineup for Game 6 of the National League Championship Series tonight against the Los Angeles Dodgers:
- Francisco Lindor – SS
- Brandon Nimmo – LF
- Mark Vientos – 3B
- Pete Alonso – 1B
- Jesse Winker – DH
- Starling Marte – RF
- Tyrone Taylor – CF
- Jeff McNeil – 2B
- Francisco Alvarez – C
This lineup mirrors the Mets’ lineup from their Game 5 victory over the Dodgers on Friday.
Key points about that lineup included:
- Jesse Winker took over for J.D. Martinez as the designated hitter.
- Jeff McNeil replaced Jose Iglesias at second base (Iglesias later entered as a defensive substitute).
- Francisco Alvarez retained his position despite recent offensive struggles.
These changes significantly boosted the Mets’ offense, marking them as the first playoff team since the 2002 Anaheim Angels to record zero strikeouts in a postseason game. Winker went 2-for-3 with a triple and three runs scored, while Alvarez finished 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI.
