The Mets dropped another game last night, this time to the Diamondbacks. Gsellman gave the Mets a fine start but the bats couldn’t get much done so the game went into extras where the bullpen gave in two runs (worth noting that the Mets bullpen has been excellent of late). Conforto hit his 27th homer of the season in the bottom half of the frame but it wasn’t enough as the Mets fell 3-2. Tonight Patrick Corbin of the Diamondbacks as Tommy Milone fills in for Steven Matz.
