The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the New York Mets 4-2 in the series opener at Citi Field, with strong pitching from Roki Sasaki and timely hitting from Kyle Tucker. According to multiple reports, Sasaki leads the Dodgers’ effort by limiting the Mets to only a few hits and keeping New York from stringing together sustained offense. One outlet reports Sasaki strikes out nine batters and works seven innings, while another notes the Mets manage just three hits overall. In the late innings, Tucker provides key offense by ending a homer drought and hitting a two-run home run in the eighth inning, which extends Los Angeles’s lead and acts as insurance. After Tucker’s homer, the Dodgers hold on for the final 4-2 margin. The accounts also agree that the game features Sasaki’s effective start and Tucker’s go-ahead, two-run power, combining to deliver a decisive win for the Dodgers in their first meeting of the series.
