Mets' Wilmer Flores: Monster game Sunday
Flores went 6-for-6, the second Met to ever do so, with a pair of home runs in the team's 14-3 win over the Cubs on Sunday.
Analysis:
Edgardo Alfonzo was the other Met to collect six hits in a game, performing the feat on August 30, 1999. Despite Flores' big game, he'll likely lose playing time when Jose Reyes is brought back to the majors. When that occurs, Flores will become the super-utility player he was intended to be to open the season.
