Lindor's late error contributes to Mets' loss to Red Sox

The New York Mets fell to the Boston Red Sox 3-2 in ten innings on July 12. Francisco Lindor had a strong start, driving in a run and hitting a home run, but his crucial error in the bottom of the ninth allowed the Red Sox to capitalize. Lindor expressed dissatisfaction with his performance, stating it was 'unacceptable' and indicated a need for improvement. Interim manager Andy Green acknowledged the team's struggles but noted rookie Zach Thornton's solid seven-inning performance as a positive sign for the future. The Mets are now looking ahead to the trade deadline as they face a challenging second half of the season.
