Mets Morning News: Late-inning homers all for naught

The Mets lost their second straight straight game against the Phillies last night. The Amazins were down by two runs late in the game, but home runs by Francisco Lindor in the eighth inning and Brett Baty in the ninth tied things up and sent them into extra innings. Alas, the Mets failed to score the free runner in the top of the tenth, and the Phillies quickly made them pay for that, as Alec Bohm singled off Adam Ottavino to score the winning run. Oh, that loss also mathematically eliminated the Mets from the playoffs, in case you were still worried about that.
