The New York Mets defeated the San Diego Padres 7–3 on June 7 at Petco Park, with the visiting offense overpowering a Padres lineup that managed just seven hits and a .644 OPS. The Mets struck for three home runs and seven RBIs while holding San Diego to a single homer, establishing early control that the home team never recovered. New York's pitching staff allowed only seven hits and three earned runs with a 3.75 ERA, while the Padres' pitchers surrendered 13 hits and seven runs despite matching the Mets' strikeout total of seven. San Diego's offensive struggles—evidenced by a .214 batting average and .355 slugging percentage—proved decisive in a game where the Mets' power advantage made the difference. Both teams drew four walks and committed no errors, but New York's ability to convert opportunities into runs highlighted the gap in run production. The Mets' dominant pitching and multi-homer output suggest their rotation is finding consistency as they prepare for their next divisional test.
