Ian Happ homered deep into the second deck at Citi Field, and David Bote had his second home run of the season.
— Jacob deGrom was outpitched by journeyman Adrian Sampson, and the frustrated New York Mets mustered little on offense again Tuesday night in a 4-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs.
One night later, the scuffling Mets squandered another potential chance to increase their slim NL East lead over Atlanta, which played later in San Francisco. New York is 5-6 in a 16-game stretch against Washington, Pittsburgh, Miami and Chicago — all more than 20 games under .500 this season. That appeared to tick off Sampson, and the two exchanged words before umpires spoke directly to each of them.
Happ homered leading off the second. Aided by catcher James McCann's throwing error, Chicago scored twice off deGrom in the fourth on Yan Gomes' sacrifice fly and Patrick Wisdom's safety squeeze.
