In the baseball encounter between the Reds and the Mets, Sal Stewart notched his first significant home run, leading the Reds to a victory with a final score of 6-3.
In a thrilling turn of events, the Cincinnati Reds managed to break a three-game losing streak by defeating the New York Mets 6-3 on September 15, 2025.
With Terry Francona sidelined due to a flu-like illness, bench coach Freddie Benavides took the helm for the Reds. The team's performance was a testament to their resilience, as they demonstrated a strong showing across the board.
One of the standout moments came in the fourth game of Sal Stewart's call-up from Triple-A. Stewart, who was making his first start at third base, hit his first major league home run, a significant milestone in his career.
TJ Friedl extended his on-base streak to a career-high 16 games with an RBI base hit. The Reds' offense also received contributions from Matt McLain, Austin Hays, and Elly De La Cruz, who drew a walk with the bases loaded in the seventh inning, extending the Reds' lead to 6-2.
On the mound, Brady Singer put in a stellar performance, going six innings and allowing just one run on four hits. Singer, who has been in exceptional form since August 1, extended his winning streak to four games. His record now stands at 5-1, with a 2.27 ERA, 44 strikeouts, 13 walks, and a .207 opponents' batting average in six starts since his return from the injured list.
The Mets' offensive efforts were led by Francisco Lindor, who added three hits to their total. However, it was rookie RHP Brandon Sproat who was set to make his major league debut in the upcoming game, a promising addition to the Mets' pitching lineup.
Despite the victory, the Reds are still five games back for the final NL wild-card spot. The team will look to build on this win and continue their upward trajectory as the season progresses.
As for Terry Francona, despite his health issues, he remains involved with the team, adding a sense of continuity and experience to the Reds' management during this transitional period. The team's future manager, while not officially confirmed, is rumoured to be a potential candidate from within the organization.
This game was a testament to the Reds' team spirit and resilience, and it will undoubtedly serve as a catalyst for further success in the coming games.
