8/8/2025 Box Score: Milwaukee Brewers 3 New York Mets 2 Francisco Lindor#: SS 0 for 3; 1 walk; 2 Ks; Juan Soto: RF 1 for 4; 1 run; 1 RBI; 1 K; 1 HR; Pete Alonso: 1B 0 for 4; 1 K; Brandon Nimmo: LF 0 for 3; 1 walk; 2 Ks; Starling Marte: DH 2 for 4; 1 run; 1 RBI; 1 K; 1 HR; 1 double; Jeff McNeil*: 2B 2 for 4; Francisco Alvarez: C 0 for 2; 1 walk; Ronny Mauricio#: 3B 0 for 3; 2 Ks; Cedric Mullins: CF 0 for 3; 1 K; Kodai Senga: (L, 7-4) 4.1 innings; 3 runs; 1 ER; 2 hits; 1 HR; 3 walks; 2 Ks; Brooks Raley*: 1 inning; no runs; 1 hit; 2 Ks; Ryne Stanek: 0.2 inning; no runs; 1 K; Gregory Soto: 1 inning; no runs; 1 hit; 1 walk; 2 Ks; Tyler Rogers: 1 inning; no runs; 1 walk;
NY Post: "Soto, whose ninth-inning blast Wednesday was the team’s only hit against the Guardians, jumped on a 2-2 sinker from Woodruff in the first inning and cleared the right field fence. Marte’s homer leading off the second extended the lead to 2-0. It was the fifth homer this season for Marte and his first since June 5 at Dodger Stadium."
Newsday: "The 5th inning started on a chopper by Perkins to the first-base side of the mound that Senga bobbled for an error. Brice Turang rocketed the next pitch 424 feet to right for a tying two-run homer. Senga walked No. 9 hitter Joey Ortiz before Sal Frelick grounded into what looked to be a 4-6 forceout. But hold on: Frelick’s bat had made the slightest contact with Francisco Alvarez’s mitt. The catcher’s interference was scored an E-2 and there were two runners on. Then there were three when Senga walked William Contreras to load the bases. Mendoza called in lefty Brooks Raley to face switch hitter Isaac Collins. After getting ahead 0-and-2, Raley hit Collins with a pitch to make it 3-2."
Abbie Mastracco NY Daily News: "Kodai Senga couldn’t even make it through five innings Friday night at American Family Field, running the Mets’ streak of games to 51 without having at least two starting pitchers throw six or more innings. Left-hander David Peterson is the only starter to have thrown six or more since early June."
Brian Joura Mets360: "Marte managed to hit a double in the top of the ninth against Trevor Megill, making things a bit interesting until he got thrown out at the plate trying to leg out a run on a single by Jeff McNeil."
NY Post: David Stearns not blaming hitting coaches for Mets’ offensive woes. “I have confidence in our hitting coaches,” Stearns said. “I think we have good hitting coaches. They have track records of helping to lead and putting together really quality offenses. This is, at times, baseball, and it will drive you crazy when you have talented players who go through stretches like this.
NY Post: Mets’ David Stearns hasn’t given up on struggling Frankie Montas: ‘I know he’s working hard’. Montas, who either will start on Saturday or pitch behind an opener — manager Carlos Mendoza wasn’t ready to announce his plans before Friday’s 3-2 loss to the Brewers — has been the rotation’s weak link. His struggles have prompted calls for the organization to promote a top pitching prospect such as Nolan McLean or Brandon Sproat to receive a shot.

Brian Joura Mets360: "The first four hitters for the Mets each smoked an extra-base hit, capped off by Pete Alonso’s massive home run, to stake David Peterson to a 4-0 lead and an eventual 9-1 Mets win over the Rockies Thursday afternoon in Denver. The victory, combined with a Braves loss earlier in the day, vaulted the Mets into second place in the National League East."
Mike Puma NY Post: Pete Alonso slugs two home runs as Mets pummel Rockies to win series. "Alonso homered in the first and third innings, and Mark Vientos contributed a blast in the fifth to provide David Peterson, who grew up in nearby Aurora, Colo., plenty of support in his homecoming game."
Mike Puma NY Post: Mets’ David Peterson delivers strong outing in hometown Colorado. "David Peterson had attended many games at Coors Field growing up but had never received the opportunity to pitch here. The Aurora, Colo., native finally got his chance Thursday and gave the Mets five solid innings in their 9-1 victory over the Rockies."

NY Post: “The offense went silent after Pete Alonso’s first-inning homer and Drew Smith gave up a go-ahead homer to former Yankee Mike Tauchman in the eighth…But the offense came up short. After Alonso’s third homer in two nights, his 34th of the season, Omar Narvaez doubled with two outs in the second. After that, however, Cubs starter and former Yankee Jameson Taillon retired the final 16 batters he faced…Carrasco gave up a solo home run to Cody Bellinger in the fourth inning and an RBI double to Yan Gomes in the fifth before Drew Smith allowed Tauchman’s solo homer in the eighth that gave the Cubs their first lead of the night, at 3-2.”

NY Post: Chris Bassitt tosses gem as Mets beat Reds for fourth straight win. “Bassitt emerged with eight strong innings that led a 5-1 victory over the Reds at Citi Field…Starling Marte blasted a two-run homer in the first inning to give the Mets a fast lead…daniel Vogelbach’s torrid start to his Mets career continued with an RBI single in the third that extended the Mets lead to 3-0. Francisco Lindor walked and stole second before Vogelbach delivered with two outs. Vogelbach’s RBI was his seventh in 14 games since arriving in a trade with the Pirates. Lindor has scored at least one run in 11 straight games, two short of David Wright’s club record.”

NY Post: Mets’ win streak halted at seven as Syndergaardgets hammered. “The Mets (59-51), who lost for the first time since acquiring Yoenis Cespedes on July 31, saw their lead on the Nationals in the NL East sliced to 1 ½ games. The Nationals beat the Rockies 6-1. Syndergaard (6-6) was finished after four innings in which he allowed five earned runs on eight hits with six strikeouts and two walks…The Mets scored four runs in the first two innings and then went into a slumber, going hitless over the final four against Tampa Bay’s bullpen. Collins noted the fact the Mets struck out 15 times…Two lapses contributed to the Mets falling into a 5-4 hole in the fourth. First, Syndergaard bounced a wild pitch, allowing John Jaso to reach third with two outs. Moments later, Evan Longoria hit a slow grounder, on which Ruben Tejada double-clutched — he said he couldn’t immediately grip the ball — for an infield RBI single.”
