Mets Shut Out by Dodgers for Sixth Straight Loss

Team leaders say poor contact is stalling a lineup missing Juan Soto.

Overview

  • New York, which fell 4-0 in Los Angeles on Monday, has dropped six straight and gone 20 innings without a run.
  • The Mets managed only three singles against the Dodgers with no walks or runners in scoring position as Justin Wrobleski spun eight scoreless innings on 90 pitches.
  • New York is 7-10 and sits at the bottom of the NL East after another offensive no-show.
  • Marcus Semien said the club needs to "score a run" and noted the pitchers are doing their jobs, while manager Carlos Mendoza said hitters are rolling grounders and not squaring up fastballs.
  • Juan Soto remains out with a calf strain with no firm return date, and his absence has magnified the lack of power and put more load on bats like Bo Bichette and Semien.
