The Mets failed to come through with a 9th inning rally on Tuesday night. Plus, how the struggles of the offense last season have carried over early on.
Very tough loss last night. RISP is an ongoing problem for this team. However, social media is getting on Francisco Alvarez too much. He is a rookie with very little big league experience, facing one of the premier relief pitchers in all of baseball. Let's cut him some slack. Needed to get a hit in the first inning when the bases were loaded and no outs. Did not score there.
