The Mets left a parade of runners on base and were victimized by the long ball in their 4-1 loss to the Phillies last night at Citi Field. The lone bright spot of the game was a strong showing from Taijuan Walker in his return from the injured list; he threw five scoreless innings and allowed just two hits and two walks over that span.
Unfortunately, last night’s game included an injury as well. Sean Reid-Foley departed the game with elbow discomfort and will get an MRI today.
Meanwhile, Nolan Arenado appealed his suspension and was able to get it reduced to one game, which he served yesterday.
