On a chilly night in Boston, Mets’ bats remain cold as they drop opener to Red Sox

On a chilly, windy, downright unpleasant night in Boston, the Mets’ bats remained cold en route to an 3-1 loss against the Red Sox. It was the Mets’ third loss in four games on this road trip, and the offense remained a big culprit.

The vibes were putrid in this one from the first inning. Against Hunter Dobbins, Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto went down in order, and then Pete Alonso hit a ball that grazed the very top of the Green Monster and returned into play. As a result, Alonso was thrown out at second—he was initially called safe before replay review corrected the call.
