The Mets entered their series finale against the Milwaukee Brewers looking for something on offense. Anything, really. That’ll happen when get shut out on consecutive days by a combined score of 19-0. First baseman Pete Alonso is doing his part on Wednesday, and it’s probably because he shaved off his mustache.
New York jumped out to an early 1-0 lead thanks to a Francisco Lindor RBI double. But then, the Brewers stormed back with four runs in the second inning. Another run-scoring knock from Lindor in the top of the third pulled the Mets within two.
