Ozzie Albies delivered a walk-off three-run homer in the 10th inning, sending the Mets to their sixth straight loss, 13-10 at Truist Park.
ATLANTA — The party was fun while it lasted.
The defeat marked the first time in the franchise’s 62-year history in which the Mets lost three games in a row after leading by three runs in each. The Mets trail the Braves by 8 ½ games in the NL East and, fortunately, won’t see their NL East nemesis until Aug. 11, when the teams are next scheduled to meet at Citi Field.
In a third ugly performance in his last five starts, Verlander lasted only three innings and allowed five runs, four earned, on seven hits and four walks over three innings. The Braves extended their lead to 3-0 in the inning when Starling Marte nonchalantly fielded Eddie Rosario’s single to right and watched the ball scoot under his glove for a two-base error.Francisco Alvarez rounds the bases after hitting one of his two home runs in the Mets’ loss.Omar Narvaez singled to load the bases and Nimmo jumped on Spencer Strider’s first pitch and cleared the right-field fence for his first career grand slam.
Tommy Pham’s RBI double in the fifth upped the Mets’ lead to 9-5. Marte was initially ruled out at the plate on the play, but the Mets challenged and the call was overturned.
