Hayden Senger Reflects on Brief 2026 Major-League Stint with Mets

Hayden Senger’s major-league tenure was brief in 2026, serving as backup to Luis Torrens after Francisco Alvarez tore his meniscus on May 13. Senger played in seven games, recording his first major-league home run on May 30 and serving as Christian Scott’s battery-mate for his first win. He was sent back down to Triple-A when Alvarez returned from the IL on June 9, finishing a brief stint where he successfully covered for an injured teammate.
