NEW YORK — The Mets on Wednesday were hoping to build off an impressive victory over Milwaukee from Tuesday night.
Owner Steve Cohen, in a rare pregame news conference, said: “We played great [Tuesday] night. That was a crisp game. Probably one of the best games we’ve played all year. And so we know it’s possible, right?”
The Mets did not follow up Cohen’s praise with another “best game.” They went 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position, Buck Showalter got ejected after a highly questionable call, and the Mets lost to Milwaukee, 5-2, before 28,440 at Citi Field.
