First Inning
The game began with both teams struggling to find their rhythm offensively. The Mets managed to get two hits but failed to convert them into runs, while the Mariners were held hitless by the Mets' starting pitcher.
Third Inning
In the third inning, the Amazins broke through with a run thanks to Francisco Lindor's timely hitting. His performance was crucial as he maintained an impressive batting average of .500 from his previous game stats.
Seventh Inning
The seventh inning proved pivotal for New York as they scored two more runs on four hits. Pete Alonso contributed significantly during this period with his consistent hitting prowess that has been evident throughout recent games.
Ninth Inning
Despite a late surge from Seattle in the ninth inning where they managed one run on one hit, Edwin Díaz closed out effectively for New York ensuring no further damage was done and securing his save opportunity without any walks or earned runs allowed.
