The Mets continue to experience struggles in pitching and offense during games. Starting pitcher Kodai Senga performed somewhat better than previous outings but still fell short of expectations. The bullpen, featuring Tyler Rogers and Ryan Helsley, failed to maintain leads, contributing to the team's loss. While Francisco Lindor showed signs of improvement, the overall offensive effort was disappointing, resulting in just three runs on six hits. The team looks ineffective against strong opposing pitchers, creating concern for fans and analysts alike.
Kodai Senga worked into the sixth, which is the Mets starting pitcher equivalent of a complete game these days. Into the sixth, but not out of it - let's not go crazy, folks.
Tyler Rogers allowed a single that gave the Braves the lead; when the Mets leapfrogged Atlanta, Ryan Helsley not only failed to protect a one-run lead but also gave up two runs and took the loss.
Francisco Lindor looked like his long run of poor performances might behind him, an indication that perhaps that toe is finally healing.
The Mets totaled three runs on six hits, capping their night by looking absolutely hapless against Raisel Iglesias, who's had a great season.
