Robert Roars Back With 451-Foot Blast | New York Mets News

Luis Robert Jr. crushed a 451-foot home run in his second game back from a back injury, the longest of the season and the game-winner in a 4-0 victory. It’s his third homer of the year and longest yet — a statement return as he reclaims his rhythm alongside young outfielders. Fellow rookie Carson Benge, who started slow, is now hitting well in July, showing resilience and consistency that’s lifting the team. Manager Andy Green says Benge’s grit is no surprise — he’s built for the big leagues. Meanwhile, pitcher Clay Holmes is nearing his return, set to pitch in a minor league rehab game this week after throwing a simulated game — a promising sign for the bullpen.
