In a rain-delayed game on Sunday, the New York Mets edge the Atlanta Braves 10-9 as Juan Soto drives in runs early and the Mets withstand a late Braves surge. Soto hits a two-run single in the second inning, helping New York build momentum after a four-run stretch in the frame. Nolan McLean, who starts poorly, regroups to help stabilize the Mets during the middle innings. The Mets score five runs in the second to take a 5-3 lead, with contributions including A.J. Ewing’s fifth home run and Francisco Lindor’s run-scoring single. Atlanta then continues to pressure New York, and the contest tightens late as the Braves threaten during the ninth inning. Although Atlanta stages a late comeback attempt, the Mets hold on for the win. The Braves receive late production from Tyrone Taylor’s home run and Bo Bichette’s two-run RBI on a bases-loaded double in the ninth, but New York finishes one run ahead to secure the victory.
