Ryan Jeffers and Harrison Bader had three hits apiece and Brooks Lee homered as the Minnesota Twins defeated the New York Mets 6-3.

Brooks Lee homered, Ryan Jeffers went 3-for-3 with two doubles, and the Minnesota Twins held on for a 6-3 win over the New York Mets on Tuesday night in Minneapolis.

Juan Soto and Pete Alonso homered but the rest of the Mets lineup was held in check by the Twins in their 6-3 loss in Minnesota on Tuesday night.

Ahead of Monday’s 5-1 win against the Minnesota Twins, when Soto featured a .409 on-base percentage with one home run and four RBIs, the Mets’ $765 million man talked about what it’s like not having Judge’s lineup protection.

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto told Mike Puma of the New York Post that he was "pitched differently last year," when he was with the New York Yankees and had two-time American League MVP Aaron Judge hitting behind him.

Two days after being pulled from a game after fouling a ball off his shin and falling to the ground in pain, Mets outfielder Jose Siri was diagnosed with a fractured tibia, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters after Monday’s 5-1 win against the Minnesota Twins. The Mets found out the news via an MRI after initial X-rays were negative.

They sent centerfielder Jose Siri for additional tests — an MRI and a CT scan — on his badly bruised left shin before their series opener with the Twins, manager Carlos Mendoza said. He expected team officials to discuss late Monday the possibility of putting Siri on the injured list.
