Final Score: Mets 10, Phillies 9
Sunday’s season series finale against New York was arguably as grotesque as any of the other previous 18 matchups between the Phillies and Mets this season. Maybe the epic six-run collapse in the ninth was worse. Or the one time they were no-hit at Citi Field. How about the Nick Plummer go-ahead run in the ninth against Corey Knebel?
This one however, was a long and painful trudge to the final out. It was a four-hour and 26-minute long contest with a 46 minute rain delay in between.
The Phillies surrendered three leads and lost 9-8.
