With Edwin Diaz having had worked on Monday night, Mets’ manager Carlos Mendoza turned back to Stanek while nursing a one-run lead in the ninth on Tuesday. He walked the tightrope — allowing a leadoff single to Logan O’Hoppe and a two-out single to Nolan Schanuel — but ultimately retired Mike Trout on a pop out to first base to end it. He has now recorded two saves in the Mets’ last three ballgames and holds a 4.15 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and a 38/18 K/BB ratio across 34 2/3 innings on the season.
