Meet the Mets​


The Mets avoided the sweep and put up nine runs in the series finale against the Reds. Bo Bichette and Juan Soto again had multiple hits to lead the offense, and Nolan McLean was stellar on the mound allowing just one unearned run. They now head to Philadelphia to take on their rivals for the first time this season.

Bo Bichette has gotten hot in June and looks more like the player the Mets thought they were getting when they signed him.

Around the National League East​


The Braves moved Spencer Strider to the 60-day IL and recalled old friend Carlos Carrasco.

Atlanta dropped both games of a doubleheader to the San Francisco Giants.

Despite a poor start by Sandy Alcantara, the Marlins defeated the Phillies 12-4 behind two home runs by Kyle Stowers.

After yet another poor start, the Phillies optioned Andrew Painter to Triple-A.

The Nationals ended their four-game win streak with a 6-2 loss against the Royals.

The Blue Jays placed Max Scherzer on the IL with back spasms.

The Red Sox and Giants shocked the baseball world when they completed a trade sending Rafael Devers to San Francisco, but a year later, the deal hasn’t worked out for either side.

Milwaukee starter Brandon Sproat exited his start early with a hamstring cramp, but the team isn’t too concerned about the injury.

With the trade deadline inching closer, all eyes will be on Tarik Skubal, but other players could also be a hot commodity before the deadline.

Yesterday at Amazin’ Avenue​


On the latest episode of A Pod of Their Own, the Knicks, the new Spider-man mask, and the Giants’ controversial Pride Night were all discussed.

This Date in Mets History​


On this date in 2012, R.A. Dickey allowed just one hit in the team’s 5-0 win over the Orioles. It was Dickey’s second straight one-hitter in his Cy Young season.
