The New York Mets beat the Atlanta Braves 10-9 in a rain-delayed game on Sunday, holding off a late Braves comeback. Juan Soto delivers the key early moment, hitting a two-run single in the second inning to give the Mets the lead. New York then adds runs in the same frame, scoring four in the second to build a 5-3 advantage. Nolan McLean, who starts poorly, regroups and settles in after the rough start, helping the Mets maintain their lead as the game moves into the later innings.

A.J. Ewing hits a home run for New York, and Francisco Lindor also contributes with a run-scoring single during the Mets’ scoring stretch. In the ninth inning, the Braves rally again. Tyrone Taylor homers, and Bo Bichette drives in two runs with a bases-loaded double to put additional pressure on Atlanta. Despite the late surge from the Braves, New York’s lead holds as it finishes the game with a one-run victory.
