The Mets blew a 3-0 lead but Francisco Alvarez made sure that they didn’t lose the game, as he delivered his first walk-off hit, a 421-foot homer, giving the club a 4-3 win in the opening game of the three-game series against the Orioles. With the Braves having the night off, the Mets pulled within [...]
The Mets had two on and nobody out in the bottom of the ninth inning but couldn’t push across the tying run, as they lost to the Marlins, 3-2, Sunday afternoon at Citi Field. The loss kept them from a series sweep and left their record against their NL East foe for the year at [...]
Luis Severino pitched the Mets’ first complete-game shutout since Jacob deGrom in 2021, leading the Mets to a 4-0 win over the Marlins Saturday afternoon. The victory clinches both the series win and the season-series win over their NL East rivals. Severino retired the side in order in the first, sixth and seventh innings. He [...]
Jeff McNeil and Brandon Nimmo both crushed homers with an exit velocity of 107.7 mph in the fourth inning to power the Mets to a 7-3 win over the Marlins Friday night in Citi Field. The Mets have now scored 26 runs in their last four games after being held to one run in the [...]
Before the series started, if you were told that the Mets were going to score19 runs in three games, you’d feel pretty good that they won two games and it wouldn’t have surprised you if they swept. Instead, they won just once, and it wasn’t Thursday, as they fell to the A’s, 7-6, in a [...]

Most times a 6-0 loss is easy to write off as just one of those games. But this one sticks in my craw for multiple reasons. Regardless, it was a bad start to the three-game series in Seattle Friday night. Jose Quintana started and despite what his final line looks like, he pitched a good [...]
The first four hitters for the Mets each smoked an extra-base hit, capped off by Pete Alonso’s massive home run, to stake David Peterson to a 4-0 lead and an eventual 9-1 Mets win over the Rockies Thursday afternoon in Denver.
