Summary

The Mets lost to the Dodgers 4-3 on Saturday night at Citi Field, marking their second consecutive defeat.

Mets starter Nolan McLean allowed four runs, two earned, over six innings while striking out seven. A late push featured a two-run double from Tyrone Taylor, but New York finished 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position. The Mets face the Dodgers again Sunday afternoon with Freddy Peralta opposing Emmett Sheehan.
