Mets Surge, White Sox Rally in MLB Early Season

The New York Mets have opened the 2025 MLB season with a 21-11 record, leading the NL East by 3.5 games, but parted ways with reliever José Ureña after a poor outing, replacing him with Kevin Herget. Meanwhile, the Chicago White Sox, off to a tough start, avoided a sweep with an 8-0 win over the Milwaukee Brewers, featuring standout performances from Luis Robert Jr., Miguel Vargas, and Sean Burke. The White Sox's pitching staff, including relievers Mike Vasil, Brandon Eisert, and Jared Shuster, combined for a two-hitter in that game. Prior losses included a 6-4 defeat to the Brewers and a 3-2 walk-off loss to the Athletics, capping a difficult 10-game road trip. Lenyn Sosa has been a bright spot for the White Sox with a 12-game hitting streak in April. The Brewers remain competitive in the NL Central despite recent losses.
