Dodgers 4-3 Mets (Jul 25, 2026) Game Recap
The Los Angeles Dodgers secured a 4-3 win against the New York Mets on Saturday night, marking their fourth straight victory. Kyle Tucker hit a home run for the second consecutive game, providing early momentum for the league-leading Dodgers as they moved to 67-38 on the season.
Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto lasted six innings, allowing only one run despite navigating consistent traffic on the basepaths. The right-hander struck out five and walked three. While not as dominant as his previous complete-game outing against the Yankees, his effort remained sufficient to keep the Mets' offense at bay for most of the contest.
The Mets struggled defensively throughout the game. A throwing error by first baseman Brett Baty helped the Dodgers score in the third, and a passed ball by catcher Francisco Alvarez further contributed to the deficit. The Mets are now 19 games under .500 and are navigating the season without slugger Juan Soto, who is sidelined with a calf injury.
Freddie Freeman continued his reliable offensive production with another three-hit performance. Andy Pages provided two RBIs, helping the visitors maintain a cushion until late-inning pinch-hitting efforts from the Mets tightened the score. Brock Stewart closed out the ninth to secure the save for Los Angeles.
The two clubs finish their series on Sunday, with Emmet Sheehan slated to face off against Freddy Peralta.
