NEW YORK — As he saw a group of reporters approaching his locker late Wednesday night, Francisco Lindor grinned and noted he hadn't been approached of late for postgame comments.
"That's what happens when you don't hit," Lindor said.
The All-Star shortstop isn't alone in the New York Mets clubhouse.
The Mets extended a losing streak to four for the first time since 2021 when MacKenzie Gore tied a career-high with 10 strikeouts and led the Washington Nationals to a 4-1 victory on Wednesday night.
Gore (3-1) gave up one run, four hits and two walks in six innings for the Nationals, who clinched their third series win against the Mets since the start of 2021.
