Overview

  • New York has scored 19 runs and collected 36 hits in its past three games, batting .331 over four contests and winning three of four since its six-game losing streak
  • In Sunday’s 4-2 win over Baltimore, Jazz Chisholm Jr. scored two runs with a memorable headfirst dash in socks and delivered a key two-run double in the eighth inning
  • Pinch-running veteran Paul Goldschmidt raced home from first on Chisholm’s blast for the go-ahead run, marking the first time in his career he has served as a pinch runner
  • The Mets have dropped nine of 10 games and fell 3-2 to the Braves on Monday as Spencer Schwellenbach allowed two runs over seven strong innings in the series opener
  • Despite Juan Soto’s scorching June (.324 average, eight homers, 1.188 OPS), New York’s bottom five hitters have slumped to a .183 average and the team now sits 1½ games behind the Phillies
