It meant a losing series for the Mets to the NL Central’s basement dwellers and a 2-3 homestand. The Mets fell five games below .500 for the second time this season.
The Mets gifted a Father’s Day sellout crowd at Citi Field with an impressive comeback and chance to win a series for the first time since June 1.
The dads hoping for cake on their day were instead served a stale Cookie as Carlos Carrasco got knocked out after three innings in which he surrendered six runs, five earned, on five hits and three walks with four strikeouts. Arenado quickly gave the Mets a 2-0 deficit to overcome by slamming a two-run homer in the first inning.
After Andrew Knizner reached on the high throw, which forced Alonso to leap from first base, Tommy Edman walked and Donovan stroked an RBI single.But the Mets rallied against left-hander Matthew Liberatore in the bottom of the inning.Robert Sabo for NY Post
