A bad moment was made worse for the Mets on Wednesday night.
After Luis Severino gave up a game-tying RBI single to the Nationals’ Juan Yepez in the top of the fourth inning, the starter didn’t back up home plate and catcher Francisco Alvarez — enabling another run to score after right fielder Tyrone Taylor made an errant throw."This is inexcusable…100% of the time, when you give up a hit that can score up a run or a play is at third, 100% of the time, you have to back up."“This is inexcusable,” Darling said on the broadcast.
“You just have to do it,” Darling said. “It’s one of those plays that you could go three seasons without it affecting you — that the catcher blocks it each and every time, or it never goes by the third baseman. Literally three years. Nevertheless, a moment in the next half inning seemed to epitomize the importance of what Darling was stressing.
