Francisco Lindor ran around the bases at Oracle Park with his right arm raised high after a third-inning home run. He celebrated the same way again when he doubled in the ninth as the Bay Area mist swirled just above.

A crucial part of the Mets’ lineup, Francisco Lindor suddenly lost his swing in late June and hasn’t looked the same since, but there are signs that he’s snapping out of this

The 31-year-old went 3-for-5 at the plate on Friday against the Giants, including slugging his 20th home run of the season, which helped propel the Mets to their fifth straight victory, 8-1. It was also Lindor's first long ball since July 11 against the Kansas City Royals.
