Mets win a tight and gritty NLDS Game 5 to win the series and head to the 2015 NLCS. Daniel Murphy's 6th inning homer was the deciding run in the Mets 3-2 win as Murph was involved in all 3 run. Before the homer he doubled in the Mets 1st run in the 1st and stole 3rd in an amazin' heads up play...
Kevin Davidoff NY Post: "Mets fans will remember Murphy’s fourth-inning single just as fondly, if not more so. That’s because, when Lucas Duda walked one out later, Murphy pounced: With the Dodgers, up 2-1, playing the lefty-swinging Duda on a shift to pull to the right side, Murphy calmly trotted to second, at which point he turned on the jets and sprinted to third. The Dodgers, caught sleeping, had no one covering the bag and therefore no play. Murphy tagged from third and scored the tying run on Travis d’Arnaud’s fly to right field."
NY Post: "DeGrom somehow survived six innings, after a turbulent stretch to begin the game, allowing two earned runs on six hits with seven strikeouts and three walks. Noah Syndergaard made his first career relief appearance in the seventh and walked Adrian Gonzalez on a 100-mph heater with two outs before striking out the seemingly unstoppable Justin Turner on a filthy curve."
Mike Vaccaro: It's no mirage: Collins clears every hurdle with a magic touch. "Finally came Familia’s delivery, and Kendrick wouldn’t have been close if he’d been using Bamm-Bamm Rubble’s bat, and the Mets had their 3-2 win in this game and in this series, and the dugout was clearing and the bullpen was clearing and they met just west of the pitcher’s mound in a 25-man embrace, hearing the greatest sound you can hear when you’re 3,000 miles away from home: Silence. Blissful, beautiful, bountiful silence."
