Mets' offensive statement leads comeback to sweep Giants for seventh straight win
Access the Mets beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Mike Puma about the inside buzz on the Mets. Try it free SAN FRANCISCO — In a flash, the Mets showed the offensive firepower Sunday that gives them a chance for excellence. Between a talented rookie hitting a ball into McCovey Cove behind Oracle Park and the highest-paid player in major league history launching a go-ahead blast later in that seventh inning, the Mets were quite the show — and more importantly toward their mission, they were quite successful. Advertisement 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. It was the latest positive sign the Mets have seen from the 24-year-old Mauricio in his comeback from a lost season due to multiple knee surgeries and a needed contribution from Soto, who had tiptoed quietly over the past week. Mauricio finished 4-for-4 with two RBIs — his first career four-hit game — to lead a 12-hit Mets attack. 5 Mets' Juan Soto, right, celebrates in front of San Francisco Giants catcher Patrick Bailey, left, after hitting a home run during the seventh inning of a baseball game in San Francisco, Sunday, July 27, 2025.

The right-hander allowed three earned runs on four hits and five walks with three strikeouts as his ERA increased to 2.00. Francisco Lindor's RBI groundout in the third gave the Mets a 1-0 lead. Francisco Alvarez and Mauricio singled in succession to begin the rally, but after Lindor brought in the first run with one out, Soto struck out to end the inning. Advertisement Matt Chapman's homer leading off the bottom of the fourth tied it 1-1. Senga fell behind 2-0 in the count before throwing a cutter that Chapman launched over the fence in left-center. Alvarez and Mauricio delivered consecutive doubles leading off the fifth that gave the Mets a 2-1 lead. Joey Lucchesi entered and got the final three outs without Mauricio scoring.

Reed Garrett allowed a leadoff single to Adames in the eighth before getting two outs.
