Going six innings for the first time in his short Mets’ career, Severino allowed just one unearned run, while striking out four batters. The one run Severino surrendered came in the third inning, where Henry Davis reached base on catchers interference. After allowing a hit...

In the bottom of the third, Houser issued...

Alas, the allure of teaming up with Shohei Ohtani for the powerhouse Dodgers proved too alluring, and David Stearns and company were forced to pivot to a cheaper option in the form of Sean Manaea. The expectations for the Mets wouldn’t have...
