Mets vs Angels Recap: Senga anchors win as Mets edge Angels 4-3

The Mets traveled to Los Angeles on Saturday to face the Angels in a crucial matchup during week 58 of the 2025 season. Both teams were struggling, with the Mets sitting at 11-21 after losing to the Nationals the previous day. Although the Mets came in looking for a win, the Angels had other plans early on. In the first inning, Soler launched a powerful home run to left center field that soared 403 feet into the air, bringing Trout home with him. The Angels took a quick 2-0 lead before the Mets could even get their bats going. Then in the third inning, the Angels added another run when Neto scored on a throwing error by the Mets catcher. The Angels' early aggression put immediate pressure on the visiting team.

After falling behind 3-0, the Mets refused to quit. In the sixth inning, they finally broke through against Angels pitcher Walbert Urena. Alvarez connected on a changeup and singled to center field, scoring Bichette and moving Soto to second base. However, the Mets weren't done yet. With two outs still to go, Semien stepped up and delivered a crucial single to center field that scored both Soto and Alvarez. Suddenly, the game was tied 3-3 as the momentum shifted dramatically. The Mets' resilience showed that they weren't going to roll over despite the early deficit. Their bats came alive at exactly the right moment, keeping them in striking distance heading into the final innings.

With the game tied at 3-3, the Mets needed one more big moment to take control. That moment came in the seventh inning when Mauricio stepped into the batter's box. He connected on a 4-seam fastball and launched it deep to center field. The ball soared 421 feet through the air with an exit velocity of 111 mph, clearing the wall and giving the Mets a 4-3 lead. The crowd watched in amazement as Mauricio's heroic home run put the Mets ahead for the first time all game. The Angels couldn't answer in their final chances, and the Mets held on to win. This victory showed that even when you start slow, determination and clutch hitting can turn things around.
