Mets get homers from Alonso, Lindor and Soto to finish 3-game sweep with 5-3 win over Rockies

Francisco Lindor once again homered in a victory and Clay Holmes threw a career-high seven innings as the New York Mets completed a three-game sweep of the Colorado Rockies with a 5-3 win. Pete Alonso hit a three-run shot and Juan Soto also went deep as the Mets won for the seventh time in eight games to regain sole possession of first place in the NL East. The Rockies lost their eighth straight and fell to 9-50, the worst record through 59 games of any major league team in the modern era. Lindor snapped a 3-all tie with a solo shot in the fifth. The Mets have won the last 26 games in which Lindor has homered, the second-longest streak in big league history.

Soto falls deeper into slump with another hitless game in Mets’ loss

Juan Soto’s numbers are getting ugly. The slumping New York Mets slugger went hitless again Wednesday and failed to get the ball out of the infield in a 9-4 loss to the Chicago White Sox. After signing a record $765 million contract in December as a free agent, Soto is batting a measly .224 with eight homers and 25 RBIs in 55 games during a turbulent first season with the Mets. The four-time All-Star and five-time Silver Slugger winner was 0 for 4 with a walk and a strikeout Wednesday in a dreary performance. He is hitless in his last 16 at-bats and hasn’t homered since May 9, a span of 75 plate appearances.
