New York clinched the National League East crown with a 10-2 win over the Reds on Saturday that saw David Wright homer and Lucas Duda connect on a grand slam.

The Mets have spent 107 days atop the division over the heavily favored Nationals, carried by a dominant pitching rotation (3.48 ERA), the trade-deadline acquisition of Yoenis Cespedes (.296/.341/.634 with Mets) and the return of Wright (.307/.371/.445).
The division title is the sixth in franchise history and first since 2006 when the team came within one game of reaching the World Series before losing to the eventual champions, the Cardinals, in Game 7 of the NLCS.
While the Mets' (88-67) exact seed remains to be seen, the Cardinals (97-57) are likely to get the top seed and play the wild-card winner, which would leave the Mets and likely NL West champion Dodgers (87-66) to battle in the NLDS.
