A single by infielder Mark Vientos to drive in infielder Brett Baty in the eighth inning would prove to be the game-winning run.

Right-hander Luke Weaver would come in to save the game for the Mets in the ninth inning, which he did with ease. Weaver faced the heart of the Minnesota Twins order and allowed one hit to infielder Brooks Lee and the rest were strikeouts. Luke Weaver had “no fear” when facing Byron Buxton and the Minnesota Twins“Look, this wasn't about attitude,” Weaver said post-game to Steve Gelbs of SNY.

“This wasn't about work ethic. This wasn't about a bad demeanor. There was none of that. It's about just showing up every day, giving you something to cheer about.

And thankfully, today, we freaking did that.”Weaver added about his demeanor on the mound when facing Twins outfielder Byron Buxton he is not afraid of anybody. Weaver would get Buxton out swinging on an 87-mile-per-hour changeup. More News:Devin Williams struggles add to the Mets losing streak“Look, people smell fear.

I'm not the biggest guy in the room, but I ain't scared of nobody, and that's the attitude I try to take, and if I screw up, it's on me. But at the end of the day, I'm gonna sleep at night and I'm gonna feel good about the effort I put in, and I ain't fearing nobody you remember that.”Weaver has gotten off to a rough start this season after signing a two-year ($22 million) contract, but has pitched three straight scoreless innings. Overall the 32-year-old is 2-0 with a 5.40 ERA in 10 games.
