Carson Benge continued his recent strong performance, contributing to the New York Mets' 10-5 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Saturday. Benge recorded three hits in the game, marking another highlight in his "red-hot streak." The Mets have won 12 of their last 17 games since the trade deadline.

Benge has been a consistent offensive contributor throughout August, entering the game with a .905 OPS and a .308 batting average for the month. His contributions have extended beyond hitting, as he previously threw out two runners at home plate in the same inning on Monday.

The Mets' offense was potent, with five home runs in total. Luis Robert Jr. hit two homers against his former team, the White Sox. Robert spent his first seven MLB seasons with Chicago before being traded to the Mets in January. His first home run, a two-run shot, came after Benge singled in the third inning.

Earlier in the game, Benge drove in the Mets' first run with a two-out single in the first inning after A.J. Ewing singled and stole second. Bo Bichette extended the Mets' lead to 2-1 with his 14th homer of the season in the third inning. New York Mets right fielder Carson Benge hitting an RBI single.

White Sox starter Luis Castillo struggled, allowing eight hits and four earned runs over 2 2/3 innings. He was acquired from the Mariners at the trade deadline and has failed to complete five innings in three of his four starts since the trade.

Despite a home run by Braden Montgomery that tied the game at 1-1 in the second inning, the Mets responded. After Benge collided with the right field fence while attempting to catch Montgomery's fourth-inning homer, which caromed off his glove for an RBI double, the Mets extended their lead. Benge's own homer leading off the fifth inning ignited a three-run frame that also included RBI singles from Eric Wagaman and Marcus Semien, making it 7-3.

The White Sox attempted to close the gap, scoring a run in the fourth and another in the sixth to make it 7-5. However, Robert's second solo home run in the seventh inning provided breathing room for the Mets. Luis Torrens added a two-run pinch-hit home run in the eighth, securing the 10-5 final score.

Mets pitcher Christian Scott allowed four earned runs on five hits and four walks through 4 2/3 innings, with six strikeouts. Jonathan Pintaro and Austin Warren also pitched in relief for the Mets.
