Diamondbacks 10 Mets 5 Post Game Notes - 6/1/2024


  • Mets: Was their seventh time allowing 10 or more runs this season and their second time this homestand (Also: 5/29 vs. Los Angeles-NL).
  • Sean Manaea (5.2 IP, 6 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 2 BB, 10 K)
  • Jose Iglesias (1-2, RBI, R): Drove in a run with an RBI infield single in the ninth his first RBI since August 19, 2022.
  • Pete Alonso (2-4, HR, 2B, 2 RBI, R, BB): Hit a two-run homer in the ninth...Has 15 extra-base hits since May 7, tied for fourth-most in the majors during that span.
  • Mark Vientos (2-4, HR, RBI, 2 R): Put the Mets on the board with a solo home run in the fifth.


NY Post: Mets ripped by Diamondbacks, spoiling Darryl Strawberry celebration. "After honoring Strawberry in a pregame ceremony by retiring his No. 18, the Mets opened June with a loss...Sean Manaea gave up a grand slam to Christian Walker on a sweeper left over the heart of the plate in the third inning, and the offense — which could have used a bat like Strawberry’s — got almost nothing off Arizona right-hander Slade Cecconi, who pitched poorly in three of his previous four outings."

6/1/2023 Box Score: Mets 4 Philadelphia Phillies 2

  • Mets: Earned their third sweep of the season and first against the Phillies since May 27 - May 29, 2022...Have won eight straight home games...Have homered in 15 straight games, the second-longest streak in franchise history.
  • Max Scherzer (7.0 IP, 5 H, 2 R, ER, 1 BB, 9 K)...Struck out a season-high nine batters.
  • Mark Canha (1-2, HR, 2 RBI, R, BB): Launched a two-run homer in the fourth...Was the first time homering in back-to-back games since homering in three consecutive games from September 2 - September 4, 2021 with Oakland...Has four home runs in his last three games against the Phillies, all of which have either tied the game or given the Mets the lead.
  • Jeff McNeil (1-4, RBI): Put the Mets on the board with an RBI single in the third...His last 27 hits have all been singles.
NY Post: Max Scherzer silences Phillies as Mets complete sweep "The Mets, down 2-0 in the third inning, drew a pair of two-out walks against ex-Met Taijuan Walker before Jeff McNeil singled to drive in Brandon Nimmo. An inning later, the suddenly hot Mark Canha drilled a Walker fastball to left for a two-run homer, his second in as many days after the outfielder went 19 straight games without homering."

Year: 2021; Game#48; Tuesday  Jun 1 NYM 5 @ ;ARI; 6; boxscore; 10 innings; WP: Young; LP: May; Time: 3:27; NIGHT; Attendance: 9,590;  Record: 27-21; Standings: 1; Games up/behind: up 4.0; L-wo; 


Diamondbacks 6 Mets 5 (boxscore): Francisco Lindor SS 1 for 5, triple, 1 RBI, 1 run scored, 1 K; Dominic Smith LF 1 for 2, HR, 1 run scored, 3 RBIs, 1 walk; James McCann PH 1 for 1, 1 RBI; Marcus Stroman 6 innings, 7 hits, 3 runs – all earned; 6 Ks; Edwin Diaz (BS, 1) 1 inning, 3 hits, 1 run – 1 earned, 1 K; Trevor May (L, 2-2) (BS, 2) 1/3 inning, 1 hit, 1 HR, 2 runs – 1 earned, 1 walk; 


Brian Joura Mets360: “Old baseball wisdom is that you’re going to win one-third of your games no matter what and lose one-third no matter what. It’s what you do what that other third that matters. This was one of those games and the Mets let a 4-0 lead slip away, took a 5-4 lead in the top of the 10th only to lose 6-5”.


Metstradamus: “Any loss to a bad team stinks. But a loss where you had a 4-0 lead over a bad team is a gut punch.” 


Jason Fry Faith and Fear in Flushing: The Other Guys Are Trying to Win Too. “A minor but chippy on-field dustup between Stro and Josh Rojas looked like a pointless gesture from a team on a 1-15 streak…but Edwin Diaz looked a little off from the jump in trying to secure the save. With one out, Nick Ahmed singled and took second base on a Billy McKinney bobble, then moved to third on a groundout. The Mets were one out away, but Rojas — of course it had to be Rojas — drove in the tying run”








NY Post: Diamondbacks announcer Bob Brenly mocks Marcus Stroman’s du-rag. “Diamondbacks analyst Bob Brenly, commenting on Stroman’s head covering under his cap, spouted: ‘I’m sure that is the same du-rag that Tom Seaver used to wear when he pitched for the Mets.’”

Baseball Reference: 2017 - The first-place Brewers defeat the struggling Mets, 2 - 1, behind a strong pitching performance by Chase Anderson who tosses seven scoreless innings. There is an unusual play in the 4th inning: with the bases loaded and one out, Milwaukee's Eric Sogard lifts a pop-up near the third base line. The Mets' batboy tries to get out of the way, taking his chair with him, but in doing so impedes 3B Wilmer Flores' path to the ball. Third base umpire Fieldin Culbreth first calls the batter out, but the umpires reverse themselves after conferring, as there is no provision in the rules for "batboy interference". Manager Terry Collins comes out to argue and is ejected, but he shouldn't have bothered, as Sogard then grounds into an inning-ending double play.

National Pastime.com: Johan Santana, who did not pitch last year because of shoulder surgery performed at the end of the 2010 season, no-hits the Cardinals at Citi Field, 8-0, with the help of third base ump's blown call on a fair ball and an outstanding defensive play by outfielder Mike Baxter. The 33 year-old two-time Cy Young Award winner's 134-pitch effort ends the Mets' streak of over fifty seasons, spanning 8,020 games, without a no-hitter.
