New York Mets defeat Pirates to reach season-high four-game winning streak
The New York Mets secured their fourth consecutive victory with a 6-4 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Marcus Semien provided significant offensive support with a three-run home run, while rookie pitcher Zac Thornton delivered five scoreless innings despite a 36-minute rain delay.
Mets rookie outfielder Carson Benge, who contributed two RBIs during the game, was removed in the fourth inning due to left wrist soreness after colliding with the outfield wall. While X-rays were reportedly negative, Benge remains day-to-day.
In separate action, the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2 to complete a series win. Dustin May recorded a quality start in his Brewers debut, and home runs from Jackson Chourio and Gary Sánchez helped secure the victory.
