PHILADELPHIA (AP) --- Juan Soto hit two solo homers and made a sliding catch in
the left-field corner to rob Bryce Harper of a run-scoring hit as the New York
Mets defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 6-4 on Thursday night.
Pinch-hitter Eric Wagaman provided the tiebreaking single with two outs in the
seventh inning, and Marcus Semien followed with a two-run triple off reliever
Jose Alvarado (3-2).
Soto took Phillies starter Aaron Nola deep in his first two at-bats to give him
16 homers this season. It was the 30th multihomer game of his career. Soto also
took away an extra-base hit from Harper when he lunged and slid to catch a ball
on the warning track in the third.
