Mets lose 12th in 15 games to Reds, Showalter ejected

CINCINNATI — The Mets lost for the 12th time in 15 games and Buck Showalter was ejected for the first time as New York's manager as Jonathan India drove in three runs in the Cincinnati Reds' 7-6 win on Tuesday night.

With New York trailing 4-1 in the fifth, Cincinnati's Kevin Newman hit the ball up the middle and a sliding Wil Myers, with his right arm extended in the direction of Francisco Lindor, was hit by the ball, preventing the shortstop from making a clean play. The 66-year-old Showalter, hired by the Mets before the 2022 season, was tossed by crew chief Mark Wegner.
