The New York Mets know how difficult it is to bounce back the day after losing a marathon game. They hope to find out Sunday that it's easier to deal with the nature of the quick turnaround following a long extra-innings win.

The Mets will look to complete a winning homestand on a victorious note Sunday afternoon, when they host the Detroit Tigers in the finale of a three-game series. New York's Zack Wheeler (3-3, 4.74 ERA) is scheduled to oppose Detroit rookie Spencer Turnbull (2-3, 2.68 ERA) in a battle of right-handers.

Tomas Nido finally sent the Mets home happy early Saturday evening, when his 13th-inning homer lifted New York to a 5-4 win in a game in which the two teams completely emptied their benches in using 20 players apiece, including a starting pitcher as a pinch-runner in extra innings (Steven Matz for the hosts and Daniel Norris for the Tigers).
