A.J. Ewing struggles with slump as Mets face Brewers

Mets rookie A.J. Ewing encountered challenges during his first major league slump Wednesday night against the Brewers, going hitless in four at-bats. Despite the lack of results, Mets interim manager Andy Green praised Ewing's at-bats, highlighting his hard contact and good swings. Ewing has been working with coaches on his swing mechanics amidst a tough August that included eight hits in 66 at-bats.
