The first of 13 games that the New York Mets will have to play against the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants didn’t go well, as they lost 6-5 in ten innings against the reigning World Champions. There were signs, however, that tell the story of a resilient team that refuses to give up, and that’s a plus given the ugly second-half slide that saw the Mets lose the first place in the NL East division.
The Mets actually came back from a four-run deficit in the seventh inning of Friday’s game against the Dodgers.
