They also had the reigning National League MVP in Ronald Acuña Jr. and one of the favorites to take home the Cy Young Award in Spencer Strider.

NEW YORK (AP) — JJ Bleday hit his first career grand slam, Shea Langeliers reached base five times for the second time in three games and the Oakland Athletics rallied to beat the New York Mets 7-6 on Thursday in the longest nine-inning game since the pitch clock was instituted last season. “It felt like the longest game in the pitch clock era,” Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said with a wry grin. The game, played on a hot and humid afternoon in which the first pitch temperature was 85 degrees, lasted 3 hours and 45 minutes — one minute longer than the previous mark set by the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants in Mexico City on Apr. 29, 2023. The Athletics and Mets combined to throw 425 pitches, the most in a nine-inning game this season.
