Mets shut out by Marlins as they drop their fourth straight

The Mets’ season reached a low point with yesterday’s 2-0 loss to the Marlins, as they fell to four games under .500 for the first time this year. The offense was completely listless against Pedro Lopez, who the Mets lit up the last time they faced him. Lopez got his revenge in the form of a seven-inning shutout performance, surrendering just one hit and striking out seven. That one hit came in the very first batter of the game, as Jeff McNeil lined a double just inside the left field line to lead off the first inning.
