The Mets were already down before the rain came, and when the rain left they were down even more and they could never catch up in their 6-1 defeat.
Jason Vargas had already allowed one run and had runners on second and third when a dark cloud blew over Queens. The game was delayed for over an hour and a half, and when the game resumed Paul Sewald was on the mound. He allowed both inherited runners to score which closed the book on Vargas. The lefty’s final line was a third of an inning and three earned runs.
