Hill hit a single in the first inning off Hector Noesi, added a triple in the third and a double off the Mariners starter in the fifth. He finished it off in style, hitting a one-out, solo homer off Shawn Kelley for the majors' second cycle this season. The Mets' Scott Hairston had the other one against the Rockies on April 27.
