The Mets’ 11-10 gut-wrenching loss to the Nationals on Tuesday night was clearly brutal.
How brutal? Entering Tuesday, teams leading by six or more runs entering the bottom of the sixth inning were 274-0, according to ESPN.
The Mets blew a 10-4 lead in the final frame. The Nationals completed the improbable rally when Mets closer Edwin Diaz allowed a game-winning, three-run blast to Kurt Suzuki.
