New York surged for six in the fourth to overturn a 4-1 deficit, riding Juan Soto’s three-run homer to a 12-6 win over Washington as the Mets stay in the NL wild-card mix. Lindor, Alvarez and Nimmo backed the rally, and Soto’s 42nd homer vaults him onto the Mets’ single-season list alongside Hundley and Beltrán. Four errors mudded the night, but New York’s offense kept pace in a tight playoff chase with Diamondbacks looming.
