In a high‑octane showdown at Citi Field, New York’s right‑hander Jordan Alvarez erupted for a pair of home runs, propelling the Mets to a 10‑6 victory over the San Francisco Giants. The offensive outburst was a team effort, with New York crushing the ball five times and delivering a relentless barrage that kept the Giants on the defensive all night. Veteran starter Trevor McLean earned the win, navigating through a volatile early inning and benefitting from his bullpen’s steady work to preserve the lead. The win not only bolsters the Mets’ push in the NL East race but also underscores Alvarez’s emerging role as a clutch power hitter in the lineup.
