Rejoice! The New York Mets finally won a game and a series! After the losing streak hit 12 consecutive games, the Mets finally put an end to the downslide by taking two out of three from the Minnesota Twins. It wasn’t always pretty or straightforward, and the series win did come with a cost with Francisco Lindor picking up a potentially serious injury. However, it was important that the...
Kodai Senga delivered arguably worst start of his career Saturday in the New York Mets’ 11-6 loss to the Athletics on Saturday.

He walked two and struck out just three after 72 pitches (40 strikes). After giving up a leadoff hit in the first, Senga retired the next...

While the Mets offense fought back to as close as 7-6, thanks to home runs by Bo Bichette, Francisco Alvarez, and Jorge Polanco, reliever Luke Weaver struggled for the second consecutive outing and allowed four...

All in all, they finished their first road trip of the year 4-3. Furthermore, several encouraging trends emerged from the series against the Giants. The pitching continued to look strong, while the offense showed...
For most of a cold afternoon at Citi Field, the 2025 version of the New York Mets made a return. The offense left a ton of runners in scoring position, and it was a game where both New York and the Pittsburgh Pirates spent the day leaving runners on base. However, new Met Luis Robert Jr. hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win it and send a freezing crowd home happy, as...
The United States took down the Dominican Republic in a low-scoring 2-1 affair to advance to the championship game of the World Baseball Classic Sunday night. Propelled by a couple of home runs and stout pitching, the United States will now await the winner of Italy versus Venezuela. Two solo home runs in the fourth inning by Gunnar Henderson and Roman Anthony were enough. The lone Dominican...
First, a confession. Prior to last Friday night, I had never watched a full inning of a World Baseball Classic game. After going to two games over the weekend, I am looking forward to my next one. Pre-Game The experience, however, started off poorly. There is a list of 17 instruments that are allowed at the WBC and it includes bongos, tambourines, trumpets and trombones. There is also a list of...

On a night when the Mets could ill-afford to lose, the team’s bullpen was forced into action early after David Peterson recorded just four outs and left with a 5-1 deficit. The bullpen has been heavily criticized during the second half of the season, but they held the Cubs at bay and gave the Mets’ lineup a chance to fight back. Huascar Brazobán was the first man out of the...
Jonah Tong looked shaky from the start, walking two of his first three batters, prompting an early visit from pitching coach Jeremy Hefner. After the powwow, Tong got Jake Burger to fly to center and was one pitch away from escaping the first inning unscathed. But Josh Jung fought off an 0-2, 96 mph inside fastball for an RBI single to right. Then the dam broke. Alejandro Osuna singled in a run....
