The New York Mets extended their losing streak to four games following a 5-4 defeat against the Atlanta Braves in a dramatic 10-inning showdown. The Mets initially took the lead with a homer from Juan Soto and a two-run double by Tyrone Taylor, but as the game progressed, they failed to capitalize on their early advantage.

A critical moment came in the ninth inning when Soto made a costly base running error, getting doubled off after hesitating between bases on a fly ball hit by Pete Alonso. After the game, Soto attributed his indecision to the delay in the umpire's call, which drew backlash from fans and analysts alike, who felt he lacked accountability for the mistake.
