Juan Soto nearing history with the Mets
Dominican outfielder Juan Soto continues to shine this season, this time leading the New York Mets to a 9-7 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Soto, with his outstanding performance, is approaching a historic achievement in Major League Baseball.
Soto, recognized for his skill in the field, stole his 36th base of the season, remaining only four steals away from reaching the 40-40 mark (40 home runs and 40 stolen bases).
The player has already surpassed 40 home runs in 2025, and could become the first player in Mets history to achieve this combination of power and speed, a feat that only a few have achieved in MLB.
In the game, Soto went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a walk, demonstrating his offensive impact on the team.
The Mets’ comeback, who were losing by five runs, keeps the New York team with an advantage in the fight for the last wild card in the National League.
With few games remaining, attention is focused on Soto, who seeks to leave his mark on the franchise records.
