What is the story about?
The
Mets lost their final spring training game 4-3, holding the lead from the fourth inning until the Marlins scored two runs in the ninth to win the game.
- David Peterson threw 76 pitches over five innings, giving up one run on five hits and a walk, while striking out four.
- Luke Weaver got just one out, giving up a run without giving up a hit, but instead walking three batters.
- Zach Peek and Ben Simon both had scoreless outings, going 0.2 innings and 1.0 inning respectively. SImon also struck out two batters and walked one.
- Parker Carlson picked up the blown save and the loss, giving up the tying and go-ahead run in the ninth, but overall he went 1.2 innings and struck out three.
- Bo Bichette went 1-for-2 with a double and a walk, driving in a run and scoring a run as well.
- Brett Baty went 1-for-3 with an RBI, and Jorge Polanco collected an RBI of his own on a sacrifice fly.
- Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto each collected a hit as well, and both came around to score.
The Mets don’t play again until Thursday, when they’re back in Citi Field and taking on Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates on Opening Day. It’s a 1:15 PM ET start, and will be broadcast on NBC and Peacock, so you’ll have to wait a little longer to hear Gary, Keith, and Ron’s dulcet tones.
