Soto, who signed a 15-year, $765 million deal this offseason, constituting the largest contract in sports history, had a walk and a run batted in during the game.

The Mets were 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position. The victory gave the Sox a series win after dropping their previous two, improving to 8-8 in series play.
