Mets Shut Down Padres With Outfield Magic | MLB News

The Mets pulled off a jaw-dropping 2-1 win over the Padres, thanks to three rare outfield assists at home plate in the first two innings — rookie Carson Benge threw out two runners, then A.J. Ewing added another assist. Despite a shaky start from pitcher Nolan McLean, he settled in for six strong innings, and the bullpen locked it down with Jonathan Pintaro, Nate Lavender, and Daniel Duarte sealing the deal. This victory marks the Mets’ 10th win in their last 13 games — a surprising spark in their rebuilding season — while the Padres’ playoff push hit a snag against this resilient squad.
