Mets fall out of first place as bats stay quiet in loss to Phillies
NY Post
PHILADELPHIA — First place was fun for the Mets while it lasted, but now there’s a new team to chase in the NL East.
The Mets’ 90-day stay in the division’s penthouse concluded Friday night, their bats silent in an all-too-familiar scene for a team challenged to score runs. Now they have to catch the Phillies, following a fifth loss in six games, 4-2 at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies, with their sixth straight victory, moved a half-game ahead of the Mets in the NL East. The Phillies last sat alone in first place on May 7, before the Mets tied them the following day.More Related News
