Juan Soto Exits Early Against Giants With Right Calf Tightness

Juan Soto was removed from Friday's 10-3 victory over the Giants in the first inning due to right calf tightness, an injury that appeared to occur while running the bases. His early departure is a significant concern for the Mets, who are monitoring the situation closely. Prior to the injury, Soto had been a focal point of pre-game hype, drawing comparisons to elite prospects. His absence following the first at-bat defined the night for the team despite their offensive success.
