Alvarez stayed in the game after his double in the seventh inning. He did not come out to catch in the eighth inning of the Mets’ 7-3 win over the Mariners in the MLB Little League Classic. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Alvarez would return to New York for an MRI. “Right now, we don’t know what we’re dealing with,” Mendoza said.

Mark Vientos delivered the biggest swing of the night, and Francisco Lindor and Francisco Álvarez each collected three hits as the New York Mets beat the Seattle Mariners, 7-3, in the 2025 Little League Classic on Sunday night after a 35-minute rain delay.
