Kodai Senga and three relievers combined on a seven-hit shutout Monday night for the host New York Mets, who continued their stingy early-season ways with a 2-0 win over the Miami Marlins in the opener of a three-game series.

Juan Soto and Tyrone Taylor each had an RBI hit for the Mets, who have won five straight — a span in which they’ve allowed just eight runs. Francisco Lindor was 3-for-4 while Pete Alonso added two hits.

Xavier Edwards had two hits and a stolen base for the Marlins, who have lost three of four.

The shutout Monday was the second in the last four games for New York, which blanked the Toronto Blue Jays 5-0 on Friday afternoon. The Mets lead the majors with a 1.72 ERA and have allowed just 22 runs in 10 games — the fewest ever surrendered through 10 games in team history.

Senga (1-1) gave up five hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings. He induced double plays in the fourth and fifth.

Danny Young allowed one hit in the sixth and Jose Butto surrendered one hit and struck out two over two innings. Butto helped himself out by picking off Dane Myers following his one-out single in the seventh.

Ryne Stanek earned his first save of the season with a perfect ninth inning. It was the first save for Stanek since last June 15, when he was a member of the Seattle Mariners.

Marlins starter Valente Bellozo (0-1) took the loss after allowing one run on five hits and two walks while striking out two over 3 2/3 innings.

Lindor bunted for a single leading off the third before racing home on Soto’s double to the left-center field gap.

The Mets had just one hit in their next 12 at-bats with a runner on base before adding an insurance run in the eighth. Mark Vientos drew a leadoff walk and pinch-runner Jose Siri stole second before scoring on Taylor’s single.
