Christian Scott earns his first win, Hayden Senger hits first homer as Mets beat Marlins 6-1

NEW YORK (AP) — Christian Scott finally earned his first big league win on Saturday and batterymate Hayden Senger hit his first career home run as the New York Mets beat the Miami Marlins 6-1.

Scott’s afternoon began inauspiciously when he was charged with a pitch clock violation before throwing his first pitch. But the right-hander allowed only one run and struck out a career-high eight while snapping a 15-start winless streak dating back to his debut on May 4, 2024.

Scott (1-0) underwent Tommy John surgery in September 2024 and missed last season.

Scott’s winless streak was the second-longest career-opening drought for a pitcher performing exclusively as a starter. Liam Hendriks was winless in his first 17 starts from 2011-12.

He benefited Saturday from a pair of impressive catches by rookie outfielders Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing. Benge made a running grab of Kyle Stowers’ shot to the right-centerfield wall leading off the fourth and Ewing ran down Otto Lopez’s fly to almost the same spot to rob him of an RBI hit ending the fifth.

A quartet of relievers tossed a scoreless inning apiece as the last-place Mets won their third straight — one shy of their season-high.

Mark Vientos snapped a scoreless tie with a two-run double off Tyler Phillips (0-1) in the fourth, when Marcus Semien added an RBI single. Jared Young homered leading off the sixth and Senger, who was drafted by the Mets in 2018, hit a solo shot in the seventh.

Juan Soto hit an RBI single three batters later.

Liam Hicks had three singles for the Marlins, including a run-scoring hit in the fifth.

Phillips (0-1) gave up three runs and struck out two over five innings in his second start of the season.

Marlins RHP Janson Junk (3-5, 4.80 ERA) will oppose Mets RHP Nolan McLean (2-4, 4.40 ERA) in Sunday’s series finale.

PARIS (AP) — Paris police detained 45 people after violence disrupted celebrations late Saturday of Paris Saint-Germain’s second Champions League title win and a group tried to storm a police station in the French capital.

Fans began celebrating in Paris after the final whistle earlier in the evening in Budapest, Hungary, where PSG won by beating Arsenal on penalties in a dramatic final.

Dozens of fans marched along the avenues near the Arc de Triomphe, with some setting off flares and blaring car horns. Around 20,000 people gathered on the Champs-Elysees, with police working to contain the crowd.

However, the Paris police prefecture said smaller groups caused disturbances in various locations, with some vandalizing shops and setting fires. One police officer was injured. Those who attempted to storm a police station in the posh 8th Arrondissement neighborhood were dispersed, police said.

It said that by 10 p.m., 45 people were taken into custody.

The main ring road surrounding Paris was briefly blockaded by a crowd before police dispersed it. Police also said one bakery and a restaurant were damaged.

Officers also contained about 1,000 people gathered near the PSG stadium in the 16th Arrondissement and cleared barricades made from bicycles.

In May last year, when police made more than 500 arrests across France following PSG's first title, Paris was on high alert, with 8,000 police officers deployed across the city.
