Mets Shut Out in Seattle: Mariners Sail to 6-0 Victory at T-Mobile Park
The New York Mets, now standing at a 61-55 record, faced a challenging game against the Seattle Mariners, who improved their season to 61-56. The final score reflected the Mariners' dominance on the field with a decisive 6-0 victory.
Throughout the game, the Mets struggled to convert hits into runs, managing only seven hits and leaving fourteen runners on base. Despite reaching base multiple times, including eight chances with runners in scoring position, they failed to capitalize and score. The team's overall batting average was .212 for the game, with an on-base percentage (OBP) of .257 and a slugging percentage (SLG) of .303. Notably, Francisco Lindor and Mark Vientos each hit at a .250 average for the day but couldn't ignite enough momentum to challenge their opponents effectively.
On the pitching side, Jose Quintana started for the Mets but encountered difficulties that led to five earned runs over 6.2 innings pitched. His efforts resulted in an earned run average (ERA) of 6.75 for this outing and a walks plus hits per inning pitched (WHIP) of 0.9. The bullpen didn't fare much better; Adam Ottavino experienced significant struggles as he allowed one run with an ERA of 27.00 and an alarming WHIP of 9.
Conversely, the Mariners capitalized efficiently on their opportunities throughout this contest—most notably during a four-run burst in the seventh inning that solidified their lead and ultimately secured their win.
