The Mets season came two wins short of a World Series appearance. 


The Dodgers advanced to their first Fall Classic since 2020 by virtue of a 10-5 win in Game 6 of the NLCS.


The Amazin's continued a season-long trend of not converting with runners on scoring position hitting just 2 for 9 in such instances. 


The Mets jumped out to a 1-0 lead with Pete Alonso's infield single scoring Francisco Lindor from third. 


Tommy Edman put Los Angeles ahead with a two-run double in the bottom of the frame.


Edman slugged a two-run shot off Sean Manaea in the third and with reliever Phil Maton replacing him, Will Smith hit a two-run homer. 


Mark Vientos answered with a two-run bomb of his own to start the fourth to slice the lead to 6-3. 


The teams traded runs in the seventh before the wheels came off in eighth with Kodai Senga giving up three runs for a 10-4 Dodger lead.

 

The Mets plated a run in their final at bat, but that was all she wrote. 


One of the most memorable seasons in Mets history officially came to a close. 


A lifetime of great moments on and off the field will stay in the hearts and minds of Mets fans. Hopefully, this is the start of better things yet to come.

 Pete Alonso started the offensive fireworks early with a three-run blast over the center field wall to give the Amazin's a huge early spark in the first off John Flaherty. 


Started David Peterson pulled a Houdini act in the top of the inning by escaping a first and third, no-out jam and didn't allow a run to score. 



The Mets piled on another five runs in the third with Starling Marte, Francisco Alvarez, Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo all clinching RBI hits.


Andy Pages homered to cut a massive lead to 8-2 in the top of the fourth and the Mets answered back with two in the bottom of the frame. 


Pages blasted a three run shot in the fifth to cut the lead to 10-5. 


Then, Mookie Betts launched a solo bomb to shrink the lead to four runs in the top of the sixth but a Jeff McNeil sacrifice fly gave the Mets an 11-6 advantage. 


Marte's eighth inning single to plate Alonso was the last run of the game as Edwin Diaz pitched two scoreless innings to secure the win. 


On a day when Betts promised haymakers to the Mets, it was the Orange and Blue knocking the Dodgers out.


Game 6's first pitch is set for Sunday at 8:08 with Sean Manaea taking on a litany of Los Angeles bullpen arms at Dodger Stadium.

 If you weren't with the Mets when they were 0-5. 

If you were busy when the Mets were 11-games under .500. 

And if you missed out on the Mets staging wild comeback after wild comeback all year long. Well, you missed the point. 

Down three games to one in the National League Championship Series, and facing certain elimination in Game 5, the Mets staged another major statement, winning at home in front of their fans in a 12-6 decision over the LA Dodgers. 

The Mets once again flexed their muscle and metal when the chips were down. Check out our vlog!

 The New York Mets are the third time in four games were obliterated by the Los Angeles Dodgers.


They've now been outscored in the series 30-9 I'm left 31 runners on base with a four game series.

Mark Vientos answered Shohei Ohtani's first inning home run with a solo shot of his own. 

After that, the Mets situational hitting was atrocious and the Dodgers capitalized most of the Amazin's mistakes. 

Game 5 is do or die for this team, but if there is one club you can't count out, It's the 2024 New York Mets .

 If the Mets needed bulletin board material for tonight, they now have it. 


According to a direct message to WFAN host Evan Roberts on Twitter/X, MLB is not banking on the Mets digging out of a 2-1 NLCS hole. 



Conspiracy theories already ran rampant that Rob Manfred in the Commissioner's Office dreamt of a World Series matchup that featured the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers. 


This reported Twitter/X message does not do anything to dispel that the league is planning for the two marquee franchises to match up.


 The Amazin's still have two home games left where they can potentially take a 3-2 advantage to Game 6 in Los Angeles. 



Manager Carlos Mendoza may want to post a printout of this tweet in the locker room and clubhouse to remind the Mets to never give up.
