Angels Win Series Against Mets with Joyce's Fastest Pitch

The Los Angeles Angels secured a 3-2 victory over the New York Mets on Sunday, aided by Griffin Canning's strong pitching performance and key contributions from Matt Thaiss and Kevin Pillar. This win followed a dramatic 5-4 victory on Saturday, highlighted by Ben Joyce's 104.7 mph fastball, the fastest pitch in the majors this season, which earned him his first big league save. Zach Neto was instrumental over the weekend, hitting a triple and stealing his 20th base on Sunday, and driving in four runs, including a game-winning homer, on Saturday. The Mets' offense struggled, going 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position on Sunday and 6-for-35 over the series, marking their first consecutive one-run losses of the season. The series loss knocked the Mets out of playoff position as they embark on a challenging road trip.
