Jung-Hoo Lee, Giants stretch Mets to brink in 2-1 thriller
Briefly

The New York Mets secured their fifth consecutive win against the San Francisco Giants. Mets faced Robbie Ray, who started strong with five shutout innings but faltered in the sixth inning, allowing two runs. Pete Alonso and Starling Marte were pivotal in creating scoring opportunities for the Mets. The Giants responded with their own offensive effort, led by Willy Adames and a bases-loaded situation that resulted in a score. Ray commented on the challenges of switching positions during the game and the pressure of performing well against a playoff-contending team.
"I try pitching deep into the game every week so there's no added pressure or anything like that. I don't think there is anything different about a situation like this [tonight]."
"It's not an easy thing to do, go from third base, to DH, to first base. [Devers] kind of learning it on the fly, so he's giving his max effort out there for sure. It's not easy to do that, especially in the middle of the season like this."
