The Mets had an opportunity to sweep the Marlins this afternoon, but they did not. Despite a strong start from David Peterson, the team squandered opportunities and scored just twice, setting up what felt like an inevitable walk-off home run by the Marlins off Adam Ottavino in the bottom of the ninth. With that, the Marlins won the game 3-2, while the Mets won two of three games in the series.
These losses will happen, but there was a particular sting to this one as J.D. Davis worked and walk to begin the ninth inning and advanced to second on a wild pitch.
