In one of the previous games, Lopez showcased his batting prowess by hitting an impressive .500, a testament to his skill at the plate. This exceptional performance is not just a one-off; over the last three games, he has maintained a solid batting average of .250, contributing significantly to the team's offense. His on-base percentage (OBP) and slugging percentage (SLG) have also been commendable, further highlighting his importance to the Marlins lineup.


On the other side, the Mets have their own standout performer in Francisco Lindor. The shortstop has been instrumental for his team, with a notable performance that includes hitting .500 in one of their recent matchups. Lindor's ability to consistently get on base and drive in runs has been crucial for the Mets, making him a player to watch in this matchup.
