Streak

• Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani reached a significant milestone by tying Alex Rodriguez's record of a 53-consecutive game on-base streak. • The achievement highlights Ohtani's consistent offensive performance and places him among baseball's elite hitters in terms of sustained production. • Ohtani's streak demonstrates his status as one of the premier players in Major League Baseball this season.

• The New York Mets snapped a 12-game losing streak Wednesday night with a 3-2 victory over the Minnesota Twins at Citi Field, ending their two-week-long skid when Luke Weaver struck out Byron Buxton for the final out. • Shortstop Francisco Lindor was removed from the game with left calf tightness after scoring from first base in the fourth inning and will undergo an MRI to determine the extent of the injury. • The victory marks a crucial turnaround for the struggling Mets, who had not won since early April and faced mounting pressure during their extended drought.

• The New York Mets lost 2-1 in extra innings to the Chicago Cubs, extending their losing streak to 11 games, matching their longest skid since 2004. • The defeat capped a winless 0-6 road trip for the Mets, who have not lost 12 straight since 2002. • Despite the struggles, Mets players emphasized they are still 'fighting for each other' amid the mounting losses.
