If Thursday night’s extra innings loss to the Giants wasn’t disheartening enough for you, you probably loved Friday’s game. After Jacob deGrom pitched brilliantly and got zero run support, the Mets found themselves in extra innings again. Just when it looked like they were about to escape the 10th inning and play on, Dominic Smith dropped an easy fly ball with two outs, allowing a base runner to score and end the game. Welcome to the 2019 Mets.
The Mets called up some fresh arms from Triple-A following their marathon game against the Giants.
