NEW YORK — Mark Canha homered and drove in four runs to lead Carlos Carrasco and the New York Mets past the slumping Philadelphia Phillies 4-1. Carrasco pitched six efficient innings to win his second consecutive start. Canha hit a two-run homer in the third and a two-run single with two outs in the fourth off Aaron Nola. Edmundo Sosa homered off Carrasco for the Phillies, who lost their third straight and matched a season low at five games under .500. The defending National League champions went 5-14 against the Mets last season and have dropped the first two meetings this year, mustering only one run over the past two nights. Brooks Raley struck out three in 1 1/3 innings for the Mets, and David Robertson earned his 10th save.
