Harrison Bader hit an early two-run homer, Starling Marte and Francisco Lindor also went deep, and the New York Mets took advantage of shoddy defense by the last-place Miami Marlins in a 10-4 victory Wednesday night. Tyrone Taylor went 4 for 5 for his second career four-hit game and Francisco Alvarez had two RBIs in his second game back from the injured list as the Mets (29-37) won for the seventh time in 11 games following a 4-15 skid.

Struggling Mets reliever Edwin Díaz has been activated from the injured list, and New York manager Carlos Mendoza reiterated that Díaz will return to the closer role. Díaz had been sidelined since May 29 with a right shoulder impingement. Before going on the IL, he blew three consecutive save chances and four out of five opportunities. He also squandered a four-run lead in the ninth inning on May 18 at Miami and was not charged with a blown save. After missing last season with a knee injury he sustained celebrating Puerto Rico’s victory in the World Baseball Classic, Díaz is 1-1 with a 5.40 ERA and five saves in 20 appearances.
