CHICAGO -- The New York Mets wanted more pop up top, and hoped Daniel Murphy could provide it. He delivered, hitting a tiebreaking home run in the eighth inning that sent the Mets over the Chicago Cubs 4-3 on Sunday for their first series win at Wrigley Field since 2007. The Mets won two of three on this trip to Chicago. Murphy batted leadoff for the first time this season and fifth time in his career. Hed mostly been in the second slot this season. "Its still always about quality at-bats," Murphy said. Murphy hit a leadoff shot against reliever Kyuji Fujikawa (1-1). Murphy has homered twice in three games and has an eight-game hitting streak, during which hes batted .469 (15 for 32) with seven extra-base hits. Manager Terry Collins indicated Murphy might remain in the leadoff spot. "I feel like Im taking better swings," Murphy said. "I feel better with my swing. Im also getting better pitches to hit. When your swing is going good, you feel comfortable at the plate. You just dont miss them. Thats kind of where Im at." Mets rookie Juan Lagares hit his first major league homer, a tying, two-run drive in the seventh against starter Travis Wood. "I wish I could have that pitch back," Wood said. "I went with a changeup, was trying to get it down and happened to leave it up. He put a good swing on it and hit it out." Lagares planned to keep the baseball, which a fan threw back onto the field. "When I came here I just tried to keep doing the same thing I was doing in Triple-A," Lagares said. "The key is to keep working hard." Scott Rice (2-3) pitched two scoreless innings. Bobby Parnell earned his sixth save. Wood hit his first homer of the season and fourth of his career, clearing the left-field bleachers with a two-run drive off Dillon Gee in the fifth to end a scoreless tie. "I felt like I located fairly well today, other than a couple pitches that really hurt me," Gee said. "Wood hitting the home run kind of surprised me because I was throwing so many sliders to him. It was like he was sitting on the fastball as soon as it left my hand." Wood made his ninth straight quality start, allowing three runs and five hits in seven innings. He struck out three and walked two. The last Cubs starter to begin a season with at least nine straight quality starts was Mordecai "Three Finger" Brown in 1908. "Wood was throwing the ball well today," Murphy said. "He didnt make a whole lot of mistakes. The one that did, Juan did a great job capitalizing on it. It was an awesome first home run." The Mets cut the lead to 2-1 in the sixth on a walk to Gee, a forceout, a wild pitch and an RBI single by David Wright. The Cubs extended their lead to 3-1 in the bottom half on Ryan Sweeneys leadoff homer. It was his first home run since July 27, 2011, when he played for Oakland. Gee allowed three runs and eight hits in five innings. He has allowed nine runs in his last nine innings and hasnt won since May 1. "When hes making his pitches with his changeup, which is his No. 1 pitch anyway, hes effective," Collins said. Sweeney tried to stretch a leadoff double into a triple in the fourth but was thrown out at third. The Cubs also had leadoff doubles in the first and fifth.
