The Mets lost to the Diamondbacks 5-2, as Trevor Williams put the team in a big hole early by surrendering four runs on seven hits over his two innings of work in his spot start. Sean Reid-Foley pitched well in long relief and the bullpen collectively held the fort after that for the most part, but the Mets were never able to overcome the initial deficit. The Mets plated two runs in the fifth to get within two runs, but Adam Ottavino gave up an insurance run to widen the gap and despite threatening in the later innings on multiple occasions, the Mets failed to come back.
