NY Sports Examiner: Mets strand lots in scoring position, lose to Brewers 4-2

This was a typical 2009 Mets loss.

There was really nothing wrong with it, they just didn’t win.

Emergency starter Nelson Fugueroa?  6 innings of 3 run ball.

Reyes and Murphy were 3 for 5.    Beltran was 2 for 3.  Even call-up catcher Santos had a double and a triple.

The bullpen?  3 innings, 1 run.  

Not bad.  Just like the 2009 Mets.

10 runners left on base.   That’s bad.  2 for 13 with runners in scoring position?  That’s bad.

Curious is an attendance of only 36,124.   That seems low for a brand new ballpark on a not bad Sunday afternoon.
