For the Angels, right fielder Jordon Adell has been a standout performer. In one of the previous games, Adell demonstrated his exceptional skills by hitting an impressive .600 average with an on-base plus slugging (OPS) of 1.4, including driving in a run. Over the last three games, his performance has been stellar, maintaining a .333 batting average with a home run and two RBIs, showcasing his power and consistency at the plate.


On the mound for the Angels, José Soriano has shown promising signs as a starting pitcher. Despite a challenging outing where he posted an ERA of 10.125 across one game, Soriano's ability to strike out batters at a rate of 6.75 strikeouts per nine innings indicates his potential to bounce back and contribute significantly in future matchups.

The Mets counter with their own set of stars, notably first baseman Pete Alonso. Alonso's presence in the lineup is always formidable, evidenced by his .750 batting average in one of the recent games, where he also contributed three hits over four at-bats. His consistent performance has been crucial for the Mets, providing them with offensive firepower.


Another key player for the Mets is outfielder Brandon Nimmo, who brings both skill and leadership to the team. Nimmo's ability to get on base and create scoring opportunities will be vital against the Angels' pitching staff.
