The New York Mets snapped a five-game winless streak by beating the Miami Marlins 7-3 Saturday night at Roger Dean Stadium in Jupiter, FL.
- Luisangel Acuña led off the game reaching on an infield single, and Juan Soto drove him in on the next pitch with an RBI double. Soto finished 3-for-3 and raised his spring batting average to .400.
- David Peterson started shaky in his first Grapefruit League start of 2025, but settled down after the first inning. He allowed one hit while walking two and striking out two in four shutout innings.
- Offseason minor-league signing Joey Meneses hit his first home run in a Mets uniform, a solo shot to lead off the fifth inning.
- Bret Baty stayed hot, driving in two runs on an RBI double in the sixth inning. Among all Mets hitters with at least 20 spring at-bats, Baty’s 1.201 OPS is the highest.
- Former Marlins starter José Ureña allowed the first runs of the game for Mets pitching, allowing two runs (one earned) in the seventh.
With the win, the Mets rise to 5-8 in Grapefruit League play, with only the Marlins (3-8) having a worse record.
