NY Mets vs Giants live updates, score and analysis of Sunday game
Follow our live updates as the New York Mets open a three-game series against the San Francisco Giants on Sunday at Citi Field.
New York Mets and San Francisco Giants are set to clash on Sunday afternoon at Citi Field, with the first pitch scheduled for 1:40 p.m. Christian Scott, the Mets' starting pitcher, is making his first start in nine days after recovering from Tommy John surgery in September 2024.
Scott has thrown 94⅔ innings for the Mets, posting a 4-4 record with a 3.80 ERA and 113 strikeouts. He also pitched 13⅔ innings in the minors and missed two weeks in June due to a right hip impingement.
The Giants will be relying on rookie left-hander Cesar Perdomo, who made his major league debut on September 1st against the Pirates, giving up one earned run over four innings. Perdomo also had a strong stint for Triple-A Sacramento, finishing with a 7-2 record and a 5.10 ERA in nine games before his call-up.
The Mets and Giants have split the first two games of their series, with the Mets winning 10-6 in the opener and the Giants responding with a 9-5 win on Saturday. As the series concludes on Sunday, Mets fans will be eagerly watching Scott's performance to gauge whether additional rest has benefited him.
