Juan Soto made a significant impact in his Mets debut with a 390-foot home run against the Houston Astros, helping secure a 3-1 victory for his new team. The game marked a stark contrast from Opening Day, as Soto's homer, which came off Hunter Brown, established an early lead for the Mets. Despite a strong start from Tylor Megill, who held the Astros to one earned run over five innings, the Mets' bats went cold after Soto's blast. Closer Edwin Diaz earned his first save of the season, solidifying the win against a familiar foe.
