Jose Quintana and three relievers combined to allow six hits on Saturday for the host New York Mets, who remained red hot with a 4–0 win over the Cincinnati Reds in the middle game of a three-game series.

The Mets got just two runners on in the first five innings against Jakob Junis before scoring four times in the sixth to earn their ninth straight win—their longest winning streak since rattling off nine victories in a row from April 3–13, 2018.
