Mets Games Played On This Date: July 11th

 


A Brandon Nimmo walk off in 2018, Matt Harvey with his first career HR in 2015, a Kevin McReynolds walk-off in 1991 and a brawl with the Braves in 1986. Just a few of the games the Mets have played on July 11th. 

1 Year ago today: Year: 2021; Game #88; Sunday, Jul 11; NYM 5 PIT 6;  boxscore; WP: Bednar; LP: Diaz; Save: Rodriguez; Time: 3:27; DAY; Attendance: 26,420; 

Brandon Nimmo CF 1 for 5, double, 1 run scored, 1 K;  Francisco Lindor SS 3 for 4, HR, 2 RBIs, 1 run scored, 1 Walk; Jeff McNeil 2B 1 for 2, 1 walk, 1 run scored; Michael Conforto RF 2 for 3, HR, 3 RBIs, 1 run scored, 1 K; Aaron Loup 2 innings, no runs, 2 hits, 2 Ks; Jerad Eickhoff 2.2 innings, 2 runs – both earned, 6 hits, 2 HRs; Jeurys Familia 1.1 innings, 2 runs – both earned, 1 hit, HR, 1 walk; Miguel Castro 1.1 innings, no runs, 2 hits, 1 walk, 1 K; Edwin Diaz (L, 3-3) (BS, 2) 1.1 inning, 2 runs – both earned, 4 hits, 1 walk, 2 Ks; Drew Smith, 1/3 inning, no runs, no hits.

NY Post: Mets suffer one of their worst losses as bullpen crumbles. "Asked to retire five batters, Diaz got to four before wilting in the ninth, sending the Mets into the All-Star break with a gut-wrenching 6-5 loss to the Pirates. Diaz surrendered two-out RBI singles to John Nogowski and Wilmer Difo in suffering his second blown save of the season. The Mets, who had squandered a five-run lead, then went quietly in the bottom of the ninth to finish with a split in the four-game series against an underwhelming cellar dweller."
