It’s official: Amed Rosario’s defense is a problem
Amed RosarioMILWAUKEE — The Mets face a crisis within a crisis.
Their main crisis is, well, their overall state after a gut-wrenching, 18-inning, 4-3 loss to the Brewers on Saturday night — the longest game (in terms of innings) ever played at Miller Park — that dropped them under .500, at 16-17, for the first time this season. That they took the lead in the top of the final inning courtesy of Jeff McNeil’s RBI single, only to see Chris Flexen fail to close out his own win by walking the bases loaded then serving up a two-run, walk-off single to Ryan Braun for his sixth hit of the marathon event, made it all the more painful.
