In a thrilling NLCS rematch, the Los Angeles Dodgers narrowly defeated the New York Mets 6-5 in a game that was plagued by rain before it even began. The dramatic finish came in the 10th inning when Freddie Freeman hit a walk-off double, capitalizing on a misplay by Brandon Nimmo in center field. The Mets had initially taken the lead in the fifth inning, thanks to strong performances from Pete Alonso and Juan Soto, but couldn't hold off the Dodgers' resurgence.

The game showcased pitching struggles for the Mets, particularly from Huascar Brazobán, who couldn't protect a lead late in the game. Tylor Megill rebounded nicely on the mound for New York, but the thin bullpen ultimately fell short. As the Mets navigate through the season, they will need to bolster their bullpen while finding consistency in their starting rotation, especially heading into crucial matchups.
