Wild Card Gut Reaction: Brewers 5, Mets 3 (10/2/24)
Briefly

The Brewers hit three home runs, two of which came in the eighth inning. The Mets were held homerless for the second straight game.
This loss is on Mendoza. Maton's a solid reliever but he's simply not a guy you bend over backwards to get in a game for a fourth time in five days.
Sean Manaea was pulled after five innings, with the Mets holding a 3-2 lead. Manaea had thrown 86 pitches and my opinion was that he should have been given another inning.
The Mets had chances to score more runs but went just 2-11 with RISP. It would have been nice if the offense capitalized.
