CINCINNATI (AP) — Lucas Duda and Jason Bay each drove in three runs with bases-loaded doubles and the Mets held off the reeling Reds for a 10-9 victory Thursday that gave New York its first ever four-game sweep in Cincinnati.

David Wright and Daniel Murphy both completed red-hot series and Chris Capuano (9-10) snapped a three-start losing streak for the Mets.

Wright went 3 for 5 to extend his hitting streak to seven games (15 for 33, .455) since coming off the disabled list on July 22. He was 9 for 19 with five RBIs in the series.

Murphy, who went into the game ranked third in NL in hitting with a .319 average, went 1 for 3 and scored three runs to finish the series 10 for 17 with five RBIs.
