Launches three-run homer in loss
Lindor went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Twins.
Analyse
Lindor provided all of the Mets' offense in one swing, crushing a 410-foot three-run homer off Simeon Woods Richardson in the third inning for his second long ball of the season. The shortstop entered Tuesday with just one RBI on the year, making the swing a notable boost to his production so far. Lindor has begun to show more pop at the plate recently, slugging .609 over his last six games after posting just a .250 slugging percentage through his first 17 contests. Despite the recent power uptick, his overall numbers remain modest, as he's now batting .209 with two doubles, four RBI and two stolen bases on the season.

Batting third Friday
Lindor will start at shortstop and bat third in Friday's game against the Cubs.
Analyse
It's the first time since Aug. 5 of last season that Lindor has batted anywhere other than leadoff. Rookie Carson Benge has been elevated to the leadoff spot as Mets manager Carlos Mendoza shakes up his lineup in hopes of ending an eight-game losing skid. Lindor is slashing only .184/.287/.289 in his first 19 contests this season.
