- From the Brewers 7 Mets 6 Post Game Notes 3/30/2024:
- Mets: Lost their first two games of the season for the first time since 2014 when they opened the season with three straight loss vs. Washington.
- Francisco Alvarez (3-4, HR, 2 RBI, 2 R): Put the Mets on the board with a solo homer in the second...Also laced an RBI single in the fourth...Has 15 multi-RBI games since May 1, 2023, tied for fifth-most in the majors by a catcher during that span...Was his second career four-hit game (Also: 4 hits, 7/7/23).
- Pete Alonso (2-4, HR, RBI, R): Lined a solo home run in the ninth...Passed Howard Johnson to move into fourth place on the Mets all-time home run list.
- Edwin DÃaz (1.0 IP, H, K): Threw 1.0 scoreless inning in his first big league game since 2022...Missed the entire 2023 season after undergoing surgery to repair the patella tendon on his right knee.
- Luis Severino (5.0 IP, 12 H, 6 ER, 6 K): Became the 25th pitcher to start a game for both the Yankees and Mets...(Last: Bartolo Colon, 2011 with the Yankees and 2014 with the Mets).
- Brett Baty (1-1, HR, 3 RBI, R): Launched a pinch-hit three-run homer in the eighth, his first career pinch-hit blast...Was his second career home run off of a left-handed pitcher (Also: 5/1/23 vs. Atlanta, Dylan Lee).
- Yohan RamÃrez (0.1 IP): Was ejected from the game in the seventh inning.
Brewers scored 3 in the 1st and the Mets didn't get back into the game until late. Rhys Hoskins with a 2 RBI double in the 1st and 2 run homer in the 3rd. Mets loaded the bases in the first but didn't score as Jeff McNeil filed to CF to end the inning. Alvarez, Baty, and Alonso homered and Yohan Ramirez was ejected for throwing behind Rhys Hoskins in apparent retaliation for a hard slide at 2nd Base against Jeff McNeil the day before and after he did damage with the bat earlier in the game.
Brian Joura Mets 360: Luis Severino single-handedly tried to prove that Spring Training stats don’t matter, as he allowed 6 ER in 5 IP, putting the Mets in a big hole early. The Mets rallied late with the home run ball but came out on the short side of a 7-6 score Saturday afternoon against the Brewers at Citi Field.
Newsday: Mets fall to 0-2 after Rhys Hoskins, Brewers get the best of them again. Through two games, the Mets have no wins and lots of Hoskins-centric frustration. This one remained a loss despite late homers from Pete Alonso and Brett Baty and Edwin Diaz’s first appearance since 2022.

NY Post: Mets’ Max Scherzer fades late but picks up win in Opening Day start "The right-hander became the first pitcher to start an Opening Day game for and against the Mets, whom he faced with the Nationals in 2015 and ’19 openers."
Newsday: Brandon Nimmo drives in 3 as Mets defeat Marlins on Opening Day.
Mets 360: Gut Reaction: Mets 5, Marlins 3: "In a continuation of what we saw in Grapefruit League play, it was a crisp game that flowed so much better because of the pitch clock."
CBS Sports: MLB rule changes: Opening Day 2023 sees more stolen bases, faster-paced games and a Mets mess "In our opinion, anyway, the weirdest violation on Thursday involved Mets teammates Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil, as well as home plate umpire Larry Vanover. The long story made short is that Vanover charged McNeil with a strike after Alonso took too long to return to first base following a foul ball in the sixth inning of New York's game against the Marlins."
Metstradamus: Another Opening Day, Another Win, Another Body Part To Google. "Opening Day. Where everyone is 0-0, and young fans fancy their team’s pennant chances. A time of hope springing eternal. A time where new players come to make you forget about the old players. Where you get texts of 'Let’s Go Mets' and 'Happy Opening Day'. And this year’s new entry: 'Holy Crap, Verlander!!!'"
Before the Game the Mets announced their Opening Day Roster, but later announced that Justin Verlander will be placed on the 15 day disabled list.
The Mets improved to 41-21 all-time on Opening Day. Their .661 winning percentage in openers is by far the best in Major League history.

Radio.com: Davis, Alonso Lead New Mets Past Nats 11-8 for 2-0 Start. “J.D. Davis delivered a tiebreaking two-run single in the eighth inning and rookie Pete Alonso contributed three hits and two RBIs as the new-look New York Mets improved to 2-0 with an 11-8 victory over the Washington Nationals on Saturday.”
Mike Puma NY Post: New-look Mets offense comes to aid of shaky Noah Syndergaard. “McNeil fell a homer short of the cycle in a 4-for-5 performance. Alonso drove in the first two runs of his major league career in a three-hit afternoon and Davis snapped a 4-4 tie with his two-run single in the eighth against Trevor Rosenthal.”
