Giants’ Comeback Magic Poised for Sweep Against Struggling Mets
The San Francisco Giants, fueled by a streak of comeback victories, aim to sweep the New York Mets, who are mired in a slump.
The San Francisco Giants have turned comebacks into an art form, showing their grit and determination once again on Saturday afternoon. Meanwhile, the New York Mets are in free fall. The Giants are set to complete a series sweep on Sunday afternoon when they face the struggling Mets in the final game of a three-game set.
Giants’ Resilient Comeback Wins
The Giants are riding a wave of comeback victories. Their fourth straight comeback win came on Saturday, with LaMonte Wade Jr. delivering a clutch RBI single in the ninth inning that sparked a five-run explosion in the 10th, leading to a 7-2 victory over the Mets. Right-hander Logan Webb (4-4, 3.03 ERA) will take the mound for the Giants against Mets left-hander Sean Manaea (3-1, 3.11 ERA).
Key Moments from Recent Games
Saturday’s game was a rollercoaster. The Giants were no-hit into the sixth inning by Mets’ pitcher Luis Severino, yet they managed to overcome two one-run deficits. Wilmer Flores kicked off the ninth with a single, and pinch-runner Ryan McKenna scored the tying run thanks to Wade’s hit. In the 10th, Brett Wisely’s RBI single, Patrick Bailey’s bases-loaded walk, and Mike Yastrzemski’s three-run triple sealed the win.
Player Contributions and Insights
Jordan Hicks, who gave up just one run over five innings, remarked, “Obviously, it’s not ideal to go four down, but it’s pretty cool to make history coming back from those deficits. It’s nice to know that we have some fight.”
Mets’ Struggles and Challenges
The Mets are in a tailspin, losing their fifth straight game and 16th in 22 games this month. Former All-Star closer Edwin Diaz, struggling with an 8.68 ERA in May and four blown saves, couldn’t seal the game on Saturday. Their offensive struggles continued, with a 0-for-13 performance with runners on base, despite solo homers from Starling Marte and Brett Baty.
Upcoming Pitching Duel
Logan Webb will start for the Giants on Sunday. Webb has a solid track record with a 3-1 record and a 2.61 ERA in five career starts against the Mets. He’ll be looking to build on his recent strong performance. For the Mets, Sean Manaea will start, coming off a win against the Marlins and holding a 3-3 record with a 2.78 ERA in 12 starts against his former team, the Giants.
Conclusion
As the Giants look to extend their incredible run of comeback victories, the Mets are desperate to break out of their slump. Sunday’s game promises a fascinating showdown between Logan Webb and Sean Manaea, with both teams eager for a decisive win.
