The New York Mets faced another tough loss against the Arizona Diamondbacks, going down 4-3 despite a late rally. The Mets struggled with runners in scoring position, finishing 0-for-10 and leaving 13 players on base. A ninth-inning solo homer from Tyrone Taylor nearly sparked a comeback, but closer Ryan Thompson sealed the victory for Arizona with a game-ending groundout.
This defeat ended the Mets' impressive eight-game home winning streak, bringing their season record to 21-10. Despite the setback, the Mets still hold a strong lead in the National League East and will look to secure a series victory in their final home game against Arizona.
In response to ongoing bullpen struggles and injuries among their left-handed pitchers, the Mets made roster changes. Ty Adcock and Génesis Cabrera have been called up to provide fresh arms. Adcock returns to the majors with a solid 1.29 ERA in Triple-A this season, while Cabrera brings significant experience from previous stints with the St. Louis Cardinals and Toronto Blue Jays. The Mets hope these additions will bolster their bullpen depth as they navigate through injuries to key players like A.J. Minter and Danny Young.
