Brewers are 10 and seven when Freddie takes the bump Landoor just two for his last twenty five. There's June with a two oh four batting average and a pop up into shallow left falling fast. Collins is there and makes the catch one away and now Marte batting two fifty two for homers. Nineteen RBI. He's the D.H. this afternoon strike three ninety seven on the outside corner that is perfectly placed right on the edge at ninety seven especially after a three one change up you are not looking for that pitch right there Jeff. Here's Soto coming off one of the best months in Mets history three two to Soto and he pokes one in the center but coming in his cheerio easy play for him makes the catch and the inning is over a one two three inning for Freddie Peralta through one in New York it's one nothing Milwaukee Alonzo who has driven in just two runs over his last 17 games.

He messed down one nothing Jeff McNeil leads off against Freddie Peralta. Oh Jeff gets real. That got him that came awfully close to being head high like it got him on the shoulder. That was scary. McNeil is aboard for least Terrance the catcher McNeil runs first pitch and Terrance finds the hole on the right side. Now that's what you do when you get hit you take off. Wasn't a design hit run play but Terrance made it look like one of the Mets first and third and nobody out. Brad Beatty batting Mets down a run and Beatty flies one out the center that'll get a run in Shurio back out of the warning track and right in front of the fence to make the catch. McNeil tags and scores the tying run. It's one to one. Now the Mets tie the game. McNeil hit by a pitch scores on the Beatty sack fly. We go to the fourth even at one Shurio is an old veteran at this point. He's the first out of this top of the fourth. And here's the lefty Bryce Terrance. And Holmes walks him on four pitches walks him in a big concern for Clay's last couple of starts. That's his first today. Collins with a check swing base hit to left first time up and the breaking ball outside ball for so Holmes issues back to back walks this time after getting ahead.

Juan Soto leads off the bottom of the fourth in this tie game three oh down and in ball for leadoff walk issued by Peralta. So now Alonzo was struck out his first time up Soto creeping away he goes pitch outside throw not even close from Contreras three and two to Alonzo after getting down to the count two strikes and P-Box one up the middle for a base hit Soto around third. He's being waved home. Cheerios throw coming in is cut off and the Mets have the lead Alonzo with a hit with a runner in scoring position that gives the Mets a two to one lead in the fourth. He got ahead of him with fast balls and then got it to a full count with the breaking stuff and then came in with the fast ball. Pete was all over it. Sixty six runs batted in now for Alonzo two to one Mets over Milwaukee sixth inning here at Citi Field Mets two Brewers one Christian Yelich and now he's walked for his Yelich is a word carrying the tying run leading off in the sixth call for Reed Garrett in the sixth inning one two three inning on Saturday in Pittsburgh in his most recent outing Bryce Terang with the tying run at first and one out. There's a shot down the left field line and headed towards the corner it's going to go all the way to the wall Yelich is on the move. He's going to score and the Brewers have tied the game one pitch in to read Garrett's appearance Bryce Terang laces an RBI double and extends his hitting streak to 14 games. How about Bryce Terang right here jumps all over the first pitch Christian Yelich is going to score easily.
