Overview

• The Mets' franchise-record streak of 10 consecutive home series wins was snapped after losing two straight to the Diamondbacks.
• Juan Soto hit his first two home runs at Citi Field as a Met, but the team struggled offensively, going 0-for-2 with runners in scoring position.
• Arizona's Zac Gallen pitched six dominant innings, allowing just one run on two hits with eight strikeouts, while the Mets' Kodai Senga lasted only four innings.
• The Mets' bullpen, already strained due to injuries to A.J. Minter and Danny Young, gave up three runs in relief, including homers by Geraldo Perdomo and Tim Tawa.
• Kevin Ginkel and Shelby Miller delivered key late-inning relief for Arizona, escaping an eighth-inning jam and securing the win.
