What Happened
The New York Mets scored three runs in the first inning of a game against the Kansas City Royals following a play where Carson Benge reached base and advanced around the bases due to three consecutive errors by the Royals. This unusual sequence of events allowed the Mets to take an early lead.
In another contest, the Mets managed to hold on for a narrow 10-9 victory over the Atlanta Braves. The Braves mounted a late comeback attempt, nearly erasing a seven-run deficit in the ninth inning, but the Mets ultimately secured the win.
However, in a different game, the Mets suffered a significant loss to the Braves, with a final score of 14-3. This defeat was attributed in part to a poor pitching performance from the Mets' starter, Sean Manaea.
