May 24, 2025; New York City, New York, USA; New York Mets right fielder Juan Soto (22) hits a two run double in the fourth inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Citi Field. Mandatory Credit: Wendell Cruz-Imagn Images Juan Soto hit a tie-breaking two-run double in the fourth inning Saturday night as the host New York Mets beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-2 in the middle game of a three-game series.
David Peterson earned the victory while tossing a career-high 7 2/3 innings for the Mets, who won for just the third time in nine games. The Dodgers had their three-game winning streak halted.
The Dodgers took a 2-0 lead in the second on an RBI single by Enrique Hernandez and a run-scoring groundout by Dalton Rushing. But the Mets, who entered Saturday batting just .223 with runners on base, mounted two-out rallies in the second and fourth innings against Los Angeles starter Tony Gonsolin (2-1).
With two outs and nobody on in the second, Gonsolin plunked Jacob Young and Tyrone Taylor singled before Young scored on Brett Baty’s single. The Mets then loaded the bases with two outs in the fourth and Starling Marte legged out a game-tying RBI infield single,
Soto, who entered the game on a lengthy slump, followed with a two-run double off the right-center field wall for his first extra-base hit since May 9, when he homered against the Chicago Cubs. The right fielder, who signed a $765 million deal with the Mets in December, had hit .125 with two RBIs in his previous 11 games entering Saturday.
Baty added insurance with an RBI double in the eighth. He finished 3-for-3 with a walk as the Mets’ No. 9 hitter. Soto, Pete Alonso and Luis Torrens had two hits apiece.
Peterson (3-2) gave up two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out seven. He pitched into the eighth inning for the first time this season and the first time since he lasted 7 2/3 innings against the Philadelphia Phillies last Sept. 15.
Edwin Diaz struck out Mookie Betts, the potential tying run, to end the eighth before closing out his 11th save with a perfect ninth inning.
Andy Pages had two hits for the Dodgers.
Gonsolin allowed four runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings.

Kyle Larson expects ‘FOMO’ if he doesn’t race in next year’s Indy 500, talks failure to complete ‘The Double’
Imagn Images Kyle Larson wanted to be the second driver to complete The Double — completing both the Indy 500 and Coca-Cola 600 on the same day, going for a combined 1100 miles — but a day of wrecks left him out of the history books. Larson has now attempted and failed the feet twice, and is not sure if a third attempt is in his future."I'm sure if I don't get to do it again next year, then I'm gonna have massive FOMO [(ear of missing out) watching it on TV," he said. "Hopefully, someday I'll love to run the Indy 500 again and solely focus on that. Soak up all the atmosphere with just the Indy 500. You don't want to leave on the hook, as Marco said, too. Hopefully, it's in my cards again someday in the future."Larson […]

Steve Sarkisian: ‘I don’t know if we’ll ever see an undefeated champion again’
Texas coach Steve Sarkisian wonders if the undefeated national champion is heading for extinction.Three of the last five national champions have gone undefeated, but Ohio State won the title in January with a 14-2 record. The Buckeyes were the first team to win the 12-team College Football Playoff and also became the first team to play 16 games on the way to a national title.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe Buckeyes would have played in 17 games had they made the Big Ten title game. But OSU’s loss to Michigan in the final game of the regular season denied it a chance at the conference title.The increasing number of games on the way to a national title, Sarkisian said, is a big reason why he thinks it’ll be harder and harder for teams to go undefeated.“Now more than ever, the length of the season — […]
RAJNOCHŮV GLOSÁŘ: Český fotbal stojí před volbami na křižovatce
Nadstavba už je za námi, poslední kolo žádné výraznější překvapení nepřineslo. Slavia si došla v duelu s Baníkem pro další domácí výhru a v lize tak opanovala všech osmnáct domácích duelů, navíc získala rekordních 90 bodů a oslavy titulu si tak ještě zpříjemnila. Baníku se sice duel v Edenu vůbec nevydařil, přesto může sezonu hodnotit velmi kladně, také Ostravané dosáhli na rekordní počet bodů a mají do příští sezony na čem stavět.Plzeň přejela Jablonec a uhájila druhé místo, nutno říct, že zcela zaslouženě. Viktorka dlouhodobě pracuje velmi dobře, dělá správná rozhodnutí na přestupovém trhu, daří se jí v pohárové Evropě a prožila další velmi povedenou sezonu. Na druhé straně stál Jablonec, který skvělou sezonu končí v slzách. Přesto, že v posledních týdnech byli Severočeši společně se Slavií nejlepším celkem ligy, nedosáhli na evropské poháry, což je strašně mrzí a štve. I tak si myslím, že až se s určitým odstupem ohlédnou za uplynulou sezonou, budou […]
