Jorge Soler’s home run against David Peterson in the second inning stood as the game’s only run before Jazz Chisholm Jr. went deep in the eighth.
MIAMI — Two highlight-reel defensive plays and strong pitching helped keep the Mets within one run of the Marlins for most of Friday night, but they couldn’t seize their limited offensive opportunities.
Jorge Soler’s home run against David Peterson in the second inning stood as the game’s only run before Jazz Chisholm Jr. went deep in the eighth against John Curtiss, in his Mets debut. Daniel Vogelbach’s pinch-hit bloop double in the eighth gave the Mets hope of tying the game, but Marte was retired for the third out on a sinking line drive to right field snared by Soler.
It was a continuation of the left-hander’s strong work against the Marlins — he entered 2-1 lifetime with a 2.74 ERA against them. Jorge Soler rounds the bases after his home run during the Marlins’ win over the Mets on March 31.Garrett Cooper hit a slow grounder off Alonso’s glove that was directed toward a sliding McNeil, who fielded the ball and threw out Jon Berti at the plate.
