First Inning

The opening inning saw both teams struggling to make an impact offensively. The Mets and the Rockies each managed only one hit without scoring any runs. Mets' starting pitcher Clayton Holmes showed early control by keeping the Blake Street Bombers off balance with his precise pitches.

Third Inning

In the third inning, the Rockies opened up their scoring account when they managed to score a run off two hits. However, this was quickly countered by Francisco Lindor's single for the Amazins that set up a potential scoring opportunity for later innings.

Fourth Inning

The fourth inning proved pivotal as Pete Alonso stepped up for New York and delivered a powerful home run that brought in three runs. This surge gave them a commanding lead over Colorado and showcased Alonso's ability to perform under pressure.

Fifth Inning

Colorado responded in kind during the fifth inning with two runs from three hits but failed to close down on New York’s lead entirely due to some solid defensive plays from Brett Baty at second base who maintained his perfect fielding percentage throughout this game.

Eighth Inning

As tensions rose towards closing stages of playtime; Juan Soto added another insurance run via his solo homerun extending Mets’ advantage further while Edwin Díaz came into pitch relief duties ensuring no more scores were conceded till final whistle blew signaling end match proceedings altogether!
