After two disastrous offensive games against the Boston Red Sox, the New York Mets needed some offensive production Friday night. That’s exactly what they got.
The offense came early and often from the Mets, but it just wasn’t enough. As always seems to be the case, the Mets failed to get the clutch hits when they mattered most.
That poor hitting late in the game, combined with a bullpen blow-up, cost the Mets Friday night.
Home runs
The Mets fell down early against the Braves. It wasn’t until the fourth inning that the offense picked up.
