The Mets blasted four home runs in the opening four innings and cruised to a 7-2 victory over the Cubs on Friday night at Citi Field.

Francisco Lindor led off with the first of New York’s four solo homers and the Mets rolled to a 7-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Friday night in the opener of a three-game series.

In the fourth inning, after the Cubs finally got on the board on a solo home run by right fielder Kyle Tucker, Mets slugger Juan Soto answered back with one of his own. On the seventh pitch of his at-bat against Cubs starter Jameson Taillon, Soto hit a two-out 434-foot home run to the Shea Bridge in center field to give New York a 6-1 lead.
