## Resource

The Mets end a brutal stretch with a heartbreaker against Boston, falling 3-2 despite Zach Thornton’s gem of a start and Lindor’s clutch offense — but a costly error and shaky bullpen let the Red Sox steal the win. Thornton dazzled with 7 scoreless innings and elite efficiency, while Lindor drove in both runs before his ninth-inning blunder opened the door. The bullpen, especially Devin Williams, couldn’t hold the lead, and the Mets now sit at 17-17 — their worst record at this point in 31 years. Juan Soto is the lone All-Star, and they’ll look to bounce back against the Phillies. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
