The New York Mets celebrated an impressive victory over the Diamondbacks on April 29, 2025, winning 8-3 and boasting a major league best record of 21-9. Highlighting the game was an incredible defensive display by center fielder Tyrone Taylor, who made a stunning headfirst catch. Despite some criticisms regarding an easier schedule, the Mets proved their prowess by outperforming one of the best teams in the league, leading to joyous celebrations among fans and solidifying their status this season.
In one of the greatest defensive half-innings you'll ever see, Mets center fielder Tyrone Taylor's all-out sprint, headfirst dive and backhanded sliding grab onto the warning track of a Lourdes Gurriel Jr. drive was sandwiched by two more Francisco Lindor sparklers.
With the Mets already holding a seven-run lead in that fantastic fourth inning, celebratory chants of 'Let's go, Mets!' rang out.
It's a great time to be a fan of the orange and blue, who improved to a Major League best 21-9 with an 8-3 victory over the Diamondbacks that was one of the more glorious games the Mets played this year.
Folks were citing the soft early schedule - the Mets played a sport-high 20 games against teams with losing records heading into Tuesday night's game.
