Three of the newest members of the New York Mets came through in key situations for the club on Saturday afternoon. Most importantly, so did three of the Mets' longest-tenured players. The Mets hope an offensive outburst carries over Sunday afternoon, when they host the San Francisco Giants in the finale of a three-game series between the National League rivals. Mets right-hander Frankie Montas (3-1, 5.46 ERA) is slated to start against Giants left-hander Carson Whisenhunt (0-0, 7.20).

Pete Alonso hit his 250th career homer, Francisco Lindor drove in four runs and the New York Mets beat the San Francisco Giants 12-6 on Saturday to end a four-game losing streak. Alonso hit a 427-foot, three-run blast in the first inning to pull within two of Darryl Strawberry's franchise record. The Giants scored the next four runs before Brandon Nimmo — who drove in three runs — and Lindor each had run-scoring singles in the fourth and sixth.

For most of the season, Mets starter Kodai Senga looked like one of the best pitchers in MLB. Senga was a non-factor in the Mets' 12-6 win against the San Francisco Giants on Saturday. After 71 pitches, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza had seen enough.

At the buzzer on deadline day, the Giants agreed to send fan-favorite Mike Yastrzemski to the Royals for Yunior Marte.

At the 2025 MLB trade deadline, the San Francisco Giants made a move that was both painful and practical, sending longtime outfielder Mike Yastrzemski to the Kansas City Royals in exchange for 21-year-old right-handed pitcher Yunior Marte. While Giants fans may be sad to see the longest-tenured player leave, the front office deserves credit for making a forward-thinking decision — and getting real value in return. Let's be clear: this was not an easy move for the Giants. Yastrzemski has been a fixture in San Francisco since 2019, a grinder who made the most of a late-blooming MLB debut and turned himself into a respected clubhouse leader and fan favorite.

San Francisco Giants outfielder Lee Jung-hoo continued to find his rhythm in the second half of the 2025 MLB season, recording a double for the second straight game and his first multihit performance in a week, even as the Giants fell 12-6 to the New York Mets at Citi Field in New York on Saturday.

The New York Mets (63-48) ended their four-game skid with a decisive 12-6 victory versus the San Francisco Giants on Saturday, but the good vibes did not last long. The organization designated relief pitcher Rico Garcia for assignment, per Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Although the veteran right-hander did struggle against the Giants, allowing a two-run homer to Willy Adames in the ninth inning, he has largely been dependable for manager Carlos Mendoza. Garcia's wild July, which saw him bounce back and forth between the Mets and New York Yankees, gives way to an unpredictable beginning to August.
