NEW YORK (AP) — Adam Conley’s pitching was superb. His bunting was ugly.

Conley struck out a career-high nine in six scoreless innings but botched a pair of bunts that stifled the Miami Marlins’ offense in a 2-1 loss to the New York Mets on Wednesday.

Kevin Plawecki grounded a tiebreaking, two-run single through a drawn-in infield against Dustin McGowan (0-1) in the seventh inning, and the Marlins failed to finish what would have been their first three-game sweep at the Mets since 2009.
