Mets Beat White Sox 10-5 in Slugfest

The Chicago White Sox and New York Mets traded sharp results in a series that featured a 2-1 Sox walk-off win by Tristan Peters in a bullpen-dominated finale. The Mets answered with a 10-5 victory in which Luis Robert Jr., facing his former team, slugged two homers, and Chicago’s pitching was unable to keep pace as Luis Castillo struggled early. A separate Mets outslugging of the Sox also highlighted the five-home-run barrage that underscored New York’s offensive breakout, leaving Chicago with a tough evaluation of the series. In another White Sox win, a late-inning rally produced a six-run burst—back-to-back-to-back homers by Munetaka Murakami, Miguel Vargas, and Colson Montgomery—that completed a 6-4 comeback, reaffirming Chicago’s ability to flip games when needed. The results played into the broader context of the Sox maintaining a lead in the AL Central while facing a Mets squad that alternated between hot stretches and explosive offenses.
