If I told you that the Mets scored a run on a bases loaded walk, you’d likely think that this was a hard-fought contest, where neither team could afford the risk of leaving a ball over the plate and so, to save a big inning, the Mets grission’d out a walk to bring in a run.
Instead, it was simply the final cherry on top of a real garbage game, which the Mets lost 9-1.
The Mets’ night started off rough, with Carlos Carrasco putting four of the first five men to face him on base and, subsequently, all of them scoring.
