Overview
- Christian Scott delivered 5 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing three hits and two walks while throwing 98 pitches in the Mets’ shutout win.
- Jared Young and Luis Torrens provided the key offense with solo and two‑run home runs that built a 4‑0 lead for New York.
- Relievers Huascar Brazobán, Luke Weaver and A.J. Minter combined for scoreless work to preserve the shutout and extend Weaver’s scoreless streak.
- The victory came against a Padres club that has been struggling recently, losing 10 of 11 games and entering the series in poor form.
- Manager Carlos Mendoza said catcher Francisco Alvarez is completing back‑to‑back rehab games and could rejoin the Mets on the upcoming homestand, which would add depth to the team’s lineup and catching options.
