For many years, I attended the last Sunday game of the regular season at Shea Stadium or Citi Field. The worst was in 2007 and 2008 when the Mets were eliminated from the playoffs on that day.
Jacob Young made a pair of sensational catches in center field to prevent extra-base hits Sunday as the Washington Nationals hung on and handed the New York Mets a costly 3-2 defeat. The Mets, who have lost 11 of 15 and are 35-52 since mid-June, dropped into a tie with the streaking Reds for the final National League wild card. The Mets no longer control their own destiny, as both New York and Cincinnati have the same record, with the Reds having the tiebreaker. The Mets have 6 road games left, and must get hot, or else they will miss the playoffs.
