New York Mets: Reflecting on the horrors of going 5-21 in June 2018

June of 2018 was not the one many New York Mets fans want to bring home to their parents. The 5-21 record not only put them in a giant hole at the midway point of the season, but it also eliminated happiness from the summer for many diehard fans.

A year has passed since the travesty. I’m ready to go back and relive just how ugly things got.

The Schedule

The Mets began the month by playing the final three games of a series sweep against the Chicago Cubs at home. The anemic offense had a day off only to fall to the lowly Baltimore Orioles 2-1 then 1-0 on Tuesday and Wednesday.
