two baseball games yesterday and two losses starting in Washington with the Mets.

The 1-0.

Wood hits a high fly ball, left field.

McNeil back, it's gone.

A three-run home run by James Wood, who wakes up that bat in the eighth.

Stannick has given up four runs in the inning, and it's nine three

nationals in the eight. Yeah, he was kind of a disaster yesterday, as was Sean Mania. The Mets lose to

the nationals nine three in a game. They led three nothing. Got a couple of early home runs

from Francisco Indoor and Starling Marte, but that be that.

Here's Carlos Mendoza. Why was the offense so bad?

And maybe the question wasn't that because the beginning of this answer doesn't sound so great.

Back to back nights, we didn't have good at bats against it.

They kept up off balance. We chased. I think the biggest thing for us was chasing, you know, at times overly aggressive on first pitches and not doing damage, but then we chase a lot, you know, and we didn't give ourselves a chance to create opportunities. So I, we're playing back-to-back nights? No, is that what he said? I don't know. He said it's been back-to-back nights where that...

Is that what he's saying?

Okay.

That same thing happens.

I was very confused by that.

So there you have it.

They didn't do a lot after the first couple of innings offensively.

Juan Soto had a tough night.

He was 0 for 5.

The Mets right now in a downward spiral.
