Final score: Phillies 6, Mets 2 - Another Porcell-Oh-No

The Mets continued their uninspiring 2020, falling 6-2 to the Phillies to complete a three-game sweep. Rick Porcello seemed fine through five innings, but a couple bad breaks and a big home run sank his outing in the sixth. A horrific defensive inning with Jared Hughes on the mound put the game further out of reach in the seventh.

Offensively, the story was much the same as the rest of the season. Despite multiple opportunities to score against Zack Wheeler early, the Mets collectively went 1-for-6 with RISP, leaving five me on base (not their worst line of the season by far, but not good).
