Overview

• In the first inning, confusion over Michael A. Taylor’s trapped line drive led Juan Soto to pass Brandon Nimmo on the basepaths and be ruled out under rule 5.09(b)(9).
• The play was recorded as a groundout by Soto with White Sox first baseman Miguel Vargas credited with the putout and Soto denied a hit after Nimmo’s force was reinstated.
• Pete Alonso and Jared Young each launched two-run homers in back-to-back at-bats to flip a 2–0 deficit into a 4–2 lead for the Mets.
• New York added two more runs later in the game to close out a 6–4 victory that Chicago could not overturn.
• Pitchers Tylor Megill and José Castillo combined for key innings to stifle the White Sox offense and preserve the win.
