Overview
- David Peterson delivered a quality start, allowing one earned run over seven-plus innings with six strikeouts
- Ryne Stanek’s entry in the eighth led to a two-run pinch-hit homer by Gunnar Henderson—his 11th of the season—which put Baltimore ahead for good
- New York managed just one hit in 11 at-bats with runners in scoring position, extending season-long inefficiency in high-leverage situations
- Tyrone Taylor provided the Mets’ only run with an RBI double in the fifth inning
- Setup roles remain unsettled despite Edwin Díaz locking down the ninth, and Winker’s back issue compounds the team’s roster uncertainty
