On the heels of winning series from the Marlins and Padres during a 4-2 homestand, the Mets (7-6) begin their longest road trip of the season.
Buck Showalter laid awake at 1 a.m. Wednesday wondering what he was forgetting to pack in his suitcase for an 11-day trip.
“This is going to be a good test for us,” Pete Alonso, who leads MLB with six home runs, told The Post. “Not result-wise but for character — to see how we handle some adversity. There are a ton of external factors. This is going to be a really good marker for where we’re at. I feel like if we play good team ball out there, that’s going to really set the tone for the rest of the year.
When the three-week stretch was over, the galvanized Mets were 18 games over .500, after going 8-8 on the road.
