4 Apr
Summary
- Francisco Alvarez hit two home runs in the Mets' victory.
- Rookie Nolan McLean retired the first 15 batters he faced.
- Juan Soto exited the game with right calf tightness.

The New York Mets secured a dominant 10-3 victory against the San Francisco Giants on Friday, successfully ending their recent three-game losing streak. Francisco Alvarez was a standout performer, blasting two home runs to energize the team's offense. Adding to the strong pitching performance, rookie Nolan McLean was exceptional, retiring the first 15 batters he faced in a stellar outing. The Mets' bats came alive, tallying a season-high 15 hits. Bo Bichette and Marcus Semien were key contributors, each recording three hits and Semien driving in three runs. Despite the offensive success, slugger Juan Soto exited the game in the later innings due to right calf tightness. Manager Carlos Mendoza indicated that Soto would undergo imaging on Saturday to assess the injury. The team's improved offensive output was a welcome sight after scoring only three runs in their previous three games.
