00:00Let's jump across to the Mets.
00:04They were on the road up in Toronto taking on the Blue Jays.
00:07And I'll put the hand up in this one, Donnie.
00:09I was all about the Mets and Peterson going in here.
00:12I thought the offense had really found stride.
00:14I thought we had a strong arm supporting him, but they never showed up for this one.
00:18It was Chris Bassett on the hill there for the Blue Jays.
00:21He fans eight and they never were really tested.
00:24They got off to 5-1 lead going through the first three and carried it across the line.
00:29Yeah, you saw the Mets take that 1-0 lead in the first inning.
00:31Okay, good start here.
00:33Let's keep pace, but that wasn't going to be the case.
00:34A 6-2 final.
00:35And take a look at this, too.
00:37You look at the lineup here for the Toronto Blue Jays.
00:39They're not making the playoffs.
00:40Six runs and 12 hits, but take a look at this.
00:42Left nine batters on base, but also six of 18 with runners in scoring position.
00:47So there was traffic all night long for the Toronto Blue Jays on the base pass.
00:51But if you are looking at Peterson, you're right.
00:53He was 9-1 entering into that game.
00:56Took the loss, now drops to 9-2.
00:58Four and a third innings pitched.
00:59Eight hits given up, five runs.
01:01Four of those earned here.
01:02ERA climbs a bit, but still below three.
01:05He's been fantastic for them.
01:07And part of that resurgence, while you're looking for the Mets
01:09who might be able to do damage in the playoffs.
01:11If you look at that Mets lineup, Francisco Lindoor's had a sensational year.
01:14Only 1-4.
01:15Batting average drops down to 269.
01:17But how about Pete Alonso in the middle of that lineup?
01:190-3, drops his average to 239.
01:23Sometimes it's the ebbs and flows, Dubzy, of the Major League Baseball season.
01:26Where you stay hot for a period of time, you know that's going to end.
01:29Now you're deadlocked here with the Atlanta Braves for that final wildcard spot.
01:33You saw yesterday, the Braves gelled.
01:351-12 to nothing, even though their pitcher got knocked out in the first inning.
01:39The Mets weren't able to come away with a victory against the Toronto Blue Jays team.
01:42That's not going anywhere here the rest of this season.
