The Mets lost to Atlanta 4-3 after leading in the eighth inning, marking their fifth straight series loss. Ryan Helsley allowed two runs, leading to criticism of his performance and subsequent frustration. The team, now 64-57, is facing their worst stretch since June 2018, losing 13 of their last 15 games, including seven one-run games. Despite the struggles, manager Carlos Mendoza emphasized the team's talent, urging players not to focus too much on standings but to find ways to improve moving forward.
Helsley expressed frustration with his performance, stating, "For everybody else to do the job and you not to do yours, it sucks. You never want to be that guy and be the reason the team loses."
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged the team's struggles, saying, "Obviously, we're not playing well, but too much talent. We're going through a very tough time, but there's a lot of good players there. We got to get through this."
