After a slow start with Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto, and Pete Alonso all striking out in the first inning, it was Brett Baty who gave us some hope in the third inning.

The fight wasn't over yet, as Juan Soto answered back in the top of the 9th with a homer to right center (393 feet), narrowing the Reds' lead to 3-2. With Pete Alonso reaching base on a throwing error and Luisangel Acuna coming in as a pinch runner, we had hope. Brandon Nimmo's single to left got Acuna to second, but unfortunately, a double play ended our chance to capitalize.Looking Forward
While it stings to come up short, there were bright spots and players stepping up in crucial moments. Juan Soto's and Brett Baty's homers showed the power we have in the lineup, and there's no doubt we'll come back strong in the next game. Let's go, Mets!
