The New York Mets ended their 12-game losing streak Wednesday night with a 3-2 win against the Minnesota Twins. Mark Vientos delivered the tiebreaking single in the eighth inning.
Juan Soto returned to the lineup, going 1 for 3 with a single and a walk. However, shortstop Francisco Lindor was removed from the game with left calf tightness after scoring on Francisco Alvarez's double.
Byron Buxton tied the game in the sixth with a leadoff home run. Luke Weaver secured the win for the Mets, pitching one hitless inning in relief.
The 12-game skid was the team's longest since August 2002. Connor Prielipp, the Twins' top pitching prospect, made his major league debut, allowing two runs and four hits over four innings.
