Manaea, offense lead Mets to win
The Mets played a rather complete game against the Royals; arguably one of the more complete wins on the season. Sean Manaea was the standard bearer for the team, throwing seven excellent innings.

Five-run eighth propels Mets to 6-2 victory over Royals
We’ve seen a lot of long, frustrating losses this season. Last night’s 16-12 offensive barrage was unique even for the 2026 Mets. Following that monstrosity of a baseball game, tonight’s affair was blissfully, mercifully fairly normal in comparison. It was a fairly low-scoring evening until a sudden offensive barrage in the eighth inning, and the […]
