Mets Record: 34-35
Key Moment In The Game: The key moment was the bottom of the 10th inning. With two outs and a runner on second base, Lucas Duda misplays a ball that should have been handled by Mets second baseman, Ruben Tejada. For some reason Duda ranged very far to his right and then misplayed the ball. That would have been the third out of the inning but Duda’s mistake prolonged the inning which eventually lead to D.J. Carrasco balking in the game winning run.
Game Ball: Jose Reyes: 3-6 | 1 3B | 1 SB | 1 Run
