Kodai Senga’s Shocking Collapse: What Went Wrong in Mets’ Crushing Defeat to Athletics?
When your heat isn’t blazin’, pinpoint location is your lifeline — and, unfortunately for Senga, that precision was absent during a critical third inning. Down just 2-1 at the time, the A’s ripped through the Mets with Shea Langeliers doubling, Tyler Soderstrom launching a homer, and Carlos Cortes capping the onslaught with a one-out blast — a five-run surge that essentially sealed Senga’s fate in the game.
Pitching back-to-back high-count innings — throwing 54 pitches over the second and third innings alone — rarely helps a pitcher find flow, but Senga didn’t want to blame the numbers. Instead, he’s choosing to learn, reflect, and come back stronger. “Not every outing’s gonna be smooth. Some days, you hit rough patches. It’s a long season,” he admitted, showing that resilience we all admire.
