Mets Rally in Eighth to Beat Giants 5-2, Take 3 of 4 in San Francisco

The performance highlighted New York's depth with reserves stepping in during Juan Soto's calf absence.

Overview

  • The Mets used a four-run eighth inning Sunday at Oracle Park to win 5-2, cap a third straight victory, and improve to 6-4 after taking three of four.
  • Pinch-hitter Luis Torrens lined a two-run double down the right-field line off lefty Erik Miller after Luis Robert Jr. singled and stole second to flip a 2-1 deficit.
  • Kodai Senga struck out seven and allowed two runs over 5.2 innings before Huascar Brazoban, Luke Weaver, and Devin Williams combined for 3.1 scoreless frames to finish it.
  • Logan Webb limited New York to one run on seven hits across seven innings, and Giants manager Tony Vitello was ejected after a runner’s-lane call as the bullpen lost the lead.
  • Filling in for Soto and for scratched third baseman Brett Baty, Jared Young went 3-for-3 and threw out a runner from left field, reflecting the bench impact that decided the series.
