Mets' Juan Soto gets Citi Field standing ovation, then snaps skid with clutch hit
Briefly

Fans at Citi Field were skeptical about Juan Soto's performance as he struggled to find form early in the season. However, during a critical moment in a tight game against the Cardinals, Soto hit a game-tying RBI single after a 2-for-24 slump. This came amidst a challenging transition period for him, especially without Aaron Judge behind him in the batting order. Soto remains determined to adapt and improve, demonstrating his growth and commitment as a player despite earlier challenges this season.
"Definitely know how to handle it," Soto said after going 0-for-3 with a walk in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Cards. "I've been growing as a man through my whole career, and I just know things are gonna change. I just gotta keep grinding."
Those cheers grew louder when the skidding Soto ripped an 0-1 changeup to right field for a game-tying RBI single against Cardinals starter Miles Mikolas.
