Soto Hits 2 Homers and Mets Beat Braves 7-3 for 2nd Victory in 12 Games
Juan Soto homered twice, and the New York Mets finally got some production from the bottom of the lineup, beating the Atlanta Braves 7–3 on Wednesday night for their first victory over their NL East rivals in six meetings this season. No. 8 batter Ronny Mauricio also went deep and finished with three hits as New York won for only the second time in 12 games. Center fielder Jeff McNeil robbed Marcell Ozuna of a two-run homer in the first inning. Clay Holmes (8–4) pitched around four walks in five innings after issuing a career-high six free passes during a loss at Atlanta last week. The converted reliever allowed only a solo homer by rookie Drake Baldwin in the fourth. One night after blowing a 3–0 lead, the Mets' bullpen followed Holmes with three scoreless innings. Jonathan Pintaro, making his major league debut, gave up a two-run single to Ronald Acuña Jr. in the ninth before Edwin Díaz retired Ozuna with two on for his 16th save in 17 opportunities. With the score tied 1–1, Soto sparked a five-run fourth when he homered to right-center on the first pitch of the inning from Didier Fuentes (0–2), who was making his second big league start. Brett Baty and Brandon Nimmo each singled home a run during the rally. Starling Marte and Francisco Lindor both had a sacrifice fly. Pitching eight days after his 20th birthday, Fuentes was charged with six runs and eight hits in 3 1/3 innings. Soto connected again leading off the seventh against Austin Cox to make it 7–1. It was the 27th career multihomer game and fourth this season for Soto, who has 10 home runs in 23 games this month. Braves center fielder Michael Harris II robbed Lindor of a two-run homer with a spectacular leaping catch in the eighth. Key moments: With two on in the fifth, Holmes retired Ozuna and Austin Riley to end the inning. Key stats: Fuentes was the second-youngest starting pitcher in the history of Citi Field, which opened in 2009. Julio Urías was 19 when he started for the Dodgers in 2016. Atlanta slugger Matt Olson walked twice and singled, extending his on-base streak to a career-best 26 games–the longest active run in the majors. Up next: Braves RHP Grant Holmes (3–6, 3.97 ERA) starts Thursday night against RHP Griffin Canning (7–3, 3.91) in the finale of the four-game series.

Juan Soto (2 HRs) sets MLB record as Mets drop Braves
June 26 - Juan Soto hit two homers Wednesday night for the host New York Mets, who ended their drought against the Atlanta Braves by cruising to a 7-3 victory in the third game of a four-game series. Ronny Mauricio also homered for the Mets, who won for just the second time in their last 12 games. New York entered Tuesday 0-5 against the Braves since June 17. Drake Baldwin homered in the fourth while Ronald Acuna Jr. had a two-run single in the ninth for the Braves, who fell to 10-12 this month. Mauricio and Baldwin swapped homers in consecutive half-innings before Soto put the Mets ahead for good in the bottom of the fourth. His leadoff round-tripper off Braves starter Didier Fuentes (0-2) sparked a five-run outburst for a 6-1 lead. Starling Marte produced a sacrifice fly and Brett Baty had an RBI single before Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo greeted reliever Aaron Bummer with a sacrifice fly and a run-scoring single, respectively. Soto went deep again in the seventh to cap his fourth two-homer game of the season and 27th multi-homer game of his career -- the most multi-homer games in MLB history for a player before turning 27. Soto, who won't be 27 until Oct. 25, broke a record he held with Jimmie Foxx. Mauricio had a career-high three hits while Baty and Jeff McNeil finished with two hits apiece. McNeil, a natural infielder, also robbed Marcell Ozuna of a likely two-run homer with a leaping catch at the wall in the first. Clay Holmes (8-4) went five innings and allowed one run on three hits and four walks while striking out two. Brandon Waddell, Jose Butto and Ryne Stanek each tossed a scoreless inning before the Braves scored twice in the ninth against Jonathan Pintaro, who was making his major league debut. With two on, Edwin Diaz retired Ozuna on a fielder's choice to earn his 16th save. Fuentes, a 20-year-old who is the youngest player in the majors, gave up six runs on eight hits with one strikeout over 3 1/3 innings. --Field Level Media

Juan Soto leads Mets' offensive explosion in 7-3 win over Braves
Juan Soto launched two homers and made MLB history along the way as the Mets beat the Braves, 7-3, on Wednesday night at Citi Field. The Mets picked up 13 hits and were 3-for-6 with runners in scoring position. The victory ended the Mets' three-game losing streak and are now 28-12 at home this season. Here are the takeaways... -With Mark Vientos on the verge of returning to the Mets lineup, Ronny Mauricio's spot on the roster is in jeopardy. So the infielder, of course, got the Mets on the board with a solo shot in the third inning, the third longball this season. Mauricio sent a 96 mph fastball from Didier Fuentes, making his second career start, 378 feet over the right field wall. Advertisement Mauricio's blast was the first of an awakening for the Mets' offense. The team scored five runs on six hits, with Soto starting the hit parade with his 18th blast of the season. Sac flies from Starling Marte and Francisco Lindor, and RBI singles from Brett Baty and Brandon Nimmo accounted for the scoring. Ten Mets came to the plate. Soto would launch his second homer of the night in the seventh to put the Mets up 7-1. It's Soto's 27th multi-homer game of Soto's career, the most by any player before they turn 27, passing Jimmie Foxx. Soto now has 10 home runs in June. -Clay Holmes is coming off a start where he walked a career-high six batters, walked two in the first two innings, but kept the damage limited. He allowed a solo shot to Drake Baldwin in the fourth and worked out of a second-and-third jam with two outs to complete his start. The right-hander threw 96 pitches (60 strikes), allowing the one run on three hits, four walks and two strikeouts. -The Mets bullpen bounced back in a big way. The combination of Brandon Waddell, Jose Butto and Ryne Stanek allowed just one hit and one walk with four strikeouts in three scoreless innings. The debuting Jonathan Pintaro started the ninth but allowed two runs on two hits and two walks in 0.2 innings, forcing Carlos Mendoza to bring in Edwin Diaz. Diaz got the final out to end the Mets' losing streak. Advertisement -Four Mets had a multi-hit game, including Soto, Baty and Mauricio and Jeff McNeil. Mauricio went 3-for-4 and picked up his first hit from the right side as he tries to make a case to stay with the club. Game MVP: Juan Soto With the offense needing a spark, Soto got the Mets on the board first and put the game away with his two blasts. Highlights What's next The Mets and Braves complete their four-game series on Thursday night. First pitch is set for 7:10 p.m. Griffin Canning (7-3, 3.91 ERA) will take the mound looking to split the series, while the Braves will send Grant Holmes (4-6, 3.71 ERA) to the bump.
