The Giants enter Sunday’s matchup against the New York Mets at 54–51, sitting 2.5 games behind the final Wild Card spot. In June, they added ex-Red Sox superstar Rafael Devers, but it has yet to pay dividends. Devers himself is hitting just .244 with four home runs and 15 RBIs since arriving in San Francisco.
It wasn't just legendary MLB players getting immortalized on Sunday, as the latest class of Hall of Famers were introduced at Cooperstown. Sunday also marked a special occasion for the mascots of the sporting world.
Gregory Soto, activated Sunday after being acquired from the Orioles in a late-night trade Thursday, pitched a perfect seventh in his Mets debut. Reed Garrett allowed a leadoff single to Adames in the eighth to bring up Chapman, but this time, the big third baseman struck out swinging on a splitter near his ankles.
That power display by Ronny Mauricio and Juan Soto led a 5-3 comeback victory over the Giants to complete the series sweep. The Mets extended their winning streak to seven games, matching a season high, and moved 1 ½ games ahead of the Phillies for first place in the NL East.
