Mets’ Nightmare Deepens: Blown Shutout by Devin Williams Sparks Crushing Extra-Innings Loss to Cubs
The New York Mets’ losing streak was on the ropes on Sunday.
But a blown save by Devin Williams spoiled a ninth-inning shutout, and the Chicago Cubs prevailed, 2-1 in extra innings to extend New York’s misery and its losing streak to 11 games. Former Met Michael Conforto delivered the blow that sent the game to a 10th frame.
With the loss, a Mets team that invested in the league’s second-most expensive roster behind only the Los Angeles Dodgers drops to an MLB-worst 7-15.
Mets were on the verge of winning
In a bullpen game, five Mets pitchers combined to shut the Cubs out for eight innings. Mets left fielder MJ Melendez, meanwhile, plated the only run of the game up to that point with a fifth-inning solo home run.
