The one-time Rumble Ponies standout broke none other than Pete Alonso's rookie hit record on Saturday with a weak dribbler, infield single down the third-base line.

Benge went three for four on Saturday with a homer to right and two RBIs in the Mets' 10-3 win over the Phillies.

The former Oklahoma State Cowboy has had a standout rookie season, slashing .275/.339 and .419 with above average defensive numbers as well.

Benge currently sits at 157 hits while the Mets end the season on the road against the Texas Rangers and Washington Nationals.

First pitch against the Rangers tomorrow night, where the Mets will see former players Brandon Nimmo and Jacob deGrom, is set for 8:05 p.m.
