Summary
The Mets’ first-half season ended in heartbreak with a nail-biting 3-2 loss to the Red Sox, spoiled by shaky defense and a shaky closer. Rookie Zach Thornton pitched a stellar seven shutout innings, but Devin Williams blew the save in the ninth, walking a batter and giving up key hits. Francisco Lindor delivered with a homer and RBI double, but also cost the team with a costly error that let the Red Sox tie the game. A sacrifice fly in the 10th sealed the loss, leaving Thornton with no decision. Despite flashes of brilliance, inconsistency and sloppy play have plagued the Mets — and they’ll need to regroup fast if they want to turn things around in the second half.
