Mets News

The Mets dodged a sweep with a thrilling 5-4 victory over the Cardinals, powered by homers from Juan Soto and Jared Young, whose timely hits echoed the Knicks' resilience across town. Soto, clearly inspired after watching the NBA Finals, came through in the clutch, proving that the energy of New York sports can spark something special on the diamond. Christian Scott, despite giving up an early long ball to Alec Brunson, showcased determination by battling back and keeping the game close. Meanwhile, Kodai Senga resumed his rehab assignment, showing promise in his fourth outing, which is a much-needed boost for the pitching staff moving forward. With the power surge and Senga's return, the Mets are starting to find their rhythm just in time for the summer stretch.
