Coming into tonight’s game, the Mets were enjoying a nine-game winning streak at Citi Field that stretched back to May 18, the night Max Scherzer went down with his oblique injury. The team also entered play having not given up a run at home since the sixth inning of their Memorial Day victory against the Nationals, a stretch spanning 30 innings. Both of those streaks ended emphatically tonight, as New York fell by a 10-2 score to the Brewers.
The scoreless inning streak ended early, as David Peterson exhibited a familiar lack of command in the first and put his team behind before they got a chance to bat.
