Kodai Senga struggled significantly in Game 1 of the NLCS, only managing 1.1 innings while allowing three runs and walking four batters, facing immediate trouble.
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza explained Senga's inability to perform, noting, 'We didn't see the zip on the fastball,' which indicated control issues during the game.
Senga's performance started strong with a quick out against Shohei Ohtani, but quickly unraveled after he walked three consecutive batters, leading to a tough inning.
Despite limited innings in the regular season due to injury, expectations were high for Senga to deliver more than just short appearances in the postseason.
