PHILADELPHIA — Backs to the wall, the Mets went back-to-back-to-back.

In an attempt to break a seven-game losing streak, the Mets showcased their strength by hitting three consecutive home runs during Saturday’s third inning against the Phillies. This remarkable display transformed their deficit of two runs into a lead of one run.

Against young righty Mick Abel, first Francisco Lindor stepped into a full-count four-seamer and crushed it to the deepest part of Citizens Bank Park, 406 feet to left-center.

Six pitches later, it was Brandon Nimmo who drilled his second home run of the day, this time clearing the right-field wall and rounding the bases with a wide grin after tying it up.

The game remained tied for seven pitches.

Juan Soto demolished a no-doubter deep into the right-field seats, laying waste to a 97 mph fastball at the top of the zone.

The Mets had sent a statement — but also had merely crept ahead, 4-3, at the time.

It was the first time three Mets homered in succession since Oct. 4, 2022, when Nimmo, Lindor and Jeff McNeil went back-to-back-to-back against the Nationals.
