Gregory Soto, activated Sunday after being acquired from the Orioles in a late-night trade Thursday, pitched a perfect seventh in his Mets debut. Reed Garrett allowed a leadoff single to Adames in the eighth to bring up Chapman, but this time, the big third baseman struck out swinging on a splitter near his ankles.

Ronny Mauricio and Juan Soto homered in the seventh inning, and the New York Mets beat the San Francisco Giants 5-3 to match a season best with their seventh straight win.

Many fans and viewers have accused ESPN of ‘quiet quitting’ on baseball over the past decade. ESPN essentially ended “Baseball Tonight” in 2017, and you’ll rarely see shows like “First Take” or “Get Up” discuss the sport’s ongoings unless there’s a major incident or the conversation turns to Aaron Judge or Shohei Ohtani.

One of the coolest things in Major League Baseball is when someone crushes a home run in San Francisco that exits Oracle Park and lands in McCovey Cove. There's just something very rewarding about seeing a ball land in the bay beyond the right field stands.
