## Resource

The Mets suffered another crushing defeat, losing 2-1 to the Blue Jays in a game defined by a bizarre, Little League-style home run that turned on a botched outfield play. George Springer circled the bases after a ball bounced weirdly and was dropped — officially scored as a triple with an error charged to the defense. It’s emblematic of a season gone sideways for the Mets, who entered with high hopes and big money but now sit at a season-low 15 games under .500, leading to managerial changes and mounting fan frustration. Even star Juan Soto admitted the ball just wouldn’t cooperate — a painful reminder that even elite talent can’t overcome bad luck and defensive lapses when the season’s momentum slips away.
