Mets stay put in standings after squandering rubber game against A's
New York Mets' Mark Vientos tosses his bat as he runs the bases after hitting a two-run home during the third inning of a baseball game against the Oakland Athletics, Thursday, Aug. 15, 2024, in New York.
“He had a good game, two homers going the other way,” a somber Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said after the game. “But at the end of the day, we didn’t win.”Vientos’s first home run, a 406-footer into the bullpen padded the Mets’ score to 3-0. It was a a picture-perfect depiction of The first time Vientos had a multi-home run game this season was against Yankees ace Gerrit Cole. This isn’t lost on his teammate, Mets DH J.D. Martinez, who many see as a hitting guru.
In the end, Mets pitchers overshadowed Vientos’s big day with their shoddy performance, especially Quintana and relievers Huascar Brazobán and Reed Garrett. Combined, they allowed seven runs on 11 hits and seven walks in six innings.
