No one discovered they needed surgery. Nothing broke, other than some Philadelphia bats. The Mets had an upbeat, positive day yesterday. Honest.

First, David Wright gave a favorable report on his rehab from a strained right hamstring before he headed to Florida for the next stage.

Then the Mets hammered Philadelphia, 11-3, to conclude an often arduous 3-6 homestand behind the pitching of righty Carlos Torres and an offensive avalanche that contained four hits by Daniel Murphy, three hits — including a bases-loaded triple — by Eric Young Jr. and home runs by Anthony Recker and Andrew Brown.

“Eric had great at-bats all day. It started with Torres, he threw the ball so well,” Murphy said. “It was a good day for the Mets. David went down to Port St. Lucie. He’s feeling good and healthy. It was a good way to get out of New York.”

Yes, a good day from start to finish. The start was Wright.

“I continue to make progress. All signs are good. Haven’t had a single setback yet. Every day, we’re progressing,” the injured third baseman said.

The happy times progressed and the focus shifted to where the focus usually shifts at any level of baseball.

“We’ve got to have starting pitching. You win with starting pitching,” manager Terry Collins said. “We needed somebody to step up.”

That somebody was Torres (3-2), pitching in place of Matt Harvey.

Torres took the rotation turn of Harvey, out with a torn elbow ligament, and made his first start since a July 28 disaster at Washington where he gave up eight earned runs in three innings. Torres, who came out of the bullpen 13 times since, admittedly had some trouble with that windup and stretch stuff. Plus, he was throwing like a reliever.

“The first couple innings, I was throwing too many pitches. Recker came in and said, ‘You’ve got to get more early contact because you’re not going to pitch deep in the ball game if you keep doing that,’ ” said Torres, who allowed one run and four hits over 6 2/3 innings. “That was an adjustment I made. That and just go out and throw strikes.”

Many of those strikes were low in the zone to induce a fair share of grounders.

“His command was great. He was keeping the ball down,” Recker said. “When he did fall behind, he was making good pitches to get guys out coming in with that cutter a lot, especially on lefties.”

Then there was the offense, which started in the third and never quit as the Mets put at least one run up in every inning from the third on. The 11 runs were their most since hanging 11 against the Nationals July 26.

Credit the top two spots for the bulk of the offense. Young and Murphy combined to go 7-of-10, with five RBIs and three runs.

Murphy doubled home Young in the third — his first double in over a month, and the first of his two doubles on the day. Recker, recalled after John Buck was traded Tuesday, clubbed a two-run homer in the fourth. Brown singled home Murphy in the fifth. A balk and Murphy’s career best-tying fourth hit accounted for two runs in the sixth. A bases-loaded walk to Omar Quintanilla and Young’s three-run double came in the seventh. Brown bashed a solo homer in the eighth.

The Mets started slowly against rookie starter Ethan Martin, then took off and never stopped.

“It was awesome,” Murphy said. “It was a great win.”

A pretty good day all around for the Mets.
