Tough Loss for the Mets
Hey Mets fans! It was a rollercoaster ride at Citi Field today against the Tampa Bay Rays, and unfortunately, our Mets fell short in a hard-fought 7-5 loss.
Early Action and Late Drama
Our bats were silent early, but things livened up in the 4th inning when Starling Marte and Tyrone Taylor got us on the board. Marte’s infield single sent Juan Soto across home plate, followed by Taylor's fielder's choice scoring Pete Alonso. The 5th inning was a bright spot for our lineup with Soto's walk bringing in Francisco Alvarez, and Marte getting a crucial two-RBI single. Things were looking good with a 5-1 lead!Rays Rally
Alas, the Rays found their momentum in the 6th inning. It was a painful sequence with the Rays driving up their run tally. Highlights included an RBI single by Jake Mangum and a two-run homer by Danny Jansen. Ouch!
The Rays snatched the lead, making it 7-5.Final Push
We had some chances, folks. The bottom of the 9th saw Jeff McNeil giving us hope with his single, but the night just wasn’t ours. Pete Alonso showed hustle, but unfortunately, Ronny Mauricio couldn't extend the inning. We left runners stranded, eager for an opportunity to make something happen.We'll shake this one off and rally again. Let's go, Mets!
Let’s keep our spirits up and look forward to the next game!Scoreboard for Rays @ Mets (June 13th, 2025)
