After losing two of three against the Nationals, the Mets came into the night in need of a win against the Marlins who they were 5-0 against on the year. Jacob deGrom, with Wilson Ramos behind the plate, took to mound for the Mets and was knocked around for six runs over five innings. Tonight [...]
For the fifth time this season, the Mets played a rubber game. And for the fifth time, the Mets came out on the short end of the stick, this one by a 7-6 margin Thursday afternoon in Washington against the Nationals. It was the second time this year that the Mets dropped a series-deciding game [...]
Tonight’s game felt ominous from the start and then before you knew, it was over. Wilmer Font took the mound for the Mets for the second time since being acquired from the Tampa Bay Rays and was unable to make it through the third inning. On the night he gave up five runs as he [...]
The Mets climbed back to .500 with their third win in a row tonight. Noah Syndergaard was on top of his game, leading the Mets to a decisive 6-2 win over the Nationals in Washington. The big righty didn't allow a hit until the sixth inning, and other than the two-run home run he surrendered [...]
The Mets took the second game of the home series against the Marlins 4-1, setting up a golden opportunity for a Mother's Day sweep and a return to .500. Jacob deGrom was in control, allowing just one run over seven innings with eight strikeouts. Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara kept the Mets off balance allowing just [...]
The Mets pushed across eight runs in the first inning to break out of their offensive slump, and that combined with another strong effort by Zack Wheeler led the Mets to an 11-2 win over the Marlins in the first of a three-game set Friday night in Citi Field. The first eight Mets batters reached [...]
A day after it seemed the Mets bats were coming back to life, they went back to sleep, managing just two runs off Matt Strahm and the San Diego bullpen. Mets hitters struck out 13 times and again failed to support a solid pitching effort. New Met Wilmer Font made the start and gave us [...]
One win doesn't solve everything, but, in the moment this one sure seemed to do the trick. After a not-so-good Noah Syndergaard start and another seemingly quiet night for Mets bats, it looked like we were about to lose our fifth game in a row, before three bolts of light broke through the clouds. With [...]
It was a battle of two flamethrowers as Jacob deGrom took the mound against Chris Paddack. Paddack made headlines with his pregame comments about the Rookie of the Month award, which seems to have stirred up Pete Alonso. The Padres right hander came out on top, striking out 11 Mets batters over 7.2 innings. The [...]
The Milwaukee Brewers scored three runs in the third inning and made those stand up, as they emerged with a 3-2 win over the Mets Sunday, and a sweep of their three-game series. The Brewers ended up taking five of the six games against the Mets this year. Zach Davies was masterful for 7.2 IP [...]
The game looked all but over when the Mets punchless offense came to plate in the top of the ninth down one. Brewer’s righty Junior Guerra had just shut down the Mets in the previous frame, and with only three hits thus far it didn’t seem like much magic could happen. Nevertheless, it was the [...]
The Mets started a short but multi-mile road trip with a return entanglement with the Milwaukee Brewers. When we last saw the Brew Crew, Steven Matz held them almost completely in check and tonight, the Mets were hoping for a repeat performance. Brandon Woodruff would provide the loyal opposition, coming off a middling performance in [...]
