Mets Bounce Back, Take Game Two

0:00It's April 4th. Welcome to New York Mets News today, AI-powered coverage of your squad. The New York Mets bounce back strong against the San Francisco Giants, smashing them 10-3 in the second game of their four game series. That win puts the Mets in position to grab a 2-1 lead if they keep the momentum. Key guys like Boba Shet and Marcus Semyon lit it up, both going 3-5 with Bishet driving in a run and Semyon crushing a Homer for 3. Ribby's. Game 1 was all Giants though, as they took it 7-2 behind Robbie Ray's solid 5.1 innings of work, striking out 7 while the Mets managed just 5 hits total. Then in Game 2, the offense exploded with Francisco Alvarez smashing two solo shots from the 9-hole, and Luis Robert Jr. adding an RB. Rookie Nolan McLean was lights out, tossing 5 perfect innings before a short 6th. Fans are buzzing about the Mets' firepower finally clicking, especially after a middling start to the season offensively.

1:01But the Mugh got tense when Juan Soto left early with calf tightness. He's getting an MRI tomorrow, so that could shake things up big time for the lineup. Pitching stays the Mets' strength with the 5th best ERA in baseball at 2.89. Tomorrow night at 9.05 p.m. Eastern, Clay Holmes takes the hill for New York against Landon Roup for the Giants, both coming off strong starts. With Holmes at 1.0 and Roup tossing 6 scoreless, this series is heating up quick, and with Holmes facing a Giants often struggling hard at 2nd worst OPS, the Mets could build some real. Separation if their bats stay hot.
