Lol, Max stunk, plain and simple. Giving up a dinger to Manny is one thing, but the bottom of the Padres line up has been even more ineffective than the Mets' bottom 3 this season. That said, putting up a single run against any opposition starter in the post season is rarely going to result in a W.

The shock of game 1 was how quickly it got away from NY. 3, even 4 runs down early is not insurmountable.....unless you hit like the Brewers!

To blame this loss on the pitching or the hitting is easy as they were both awful. Darvish has been terrible early on in games this season, but the Mets situational hitting has disappeared over the past few weeks. Alonso was wired so tight on his first 2 k's, he almost threw his bat through the screen!

There's no doubt Degrom has to hold the Padres to 1 or 2 runs tomorrow. If the Mets can grab an early lead, they should be fine.
