What began as a potential signature comeback turned into frustration for the New York Mets, who fell 11-8 to the Miami Marlins on Saturday evening at Citi Field, their second loss in three games.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

David Peterson set the wrong tone early, allowing five runs in the first inning and leaving after just two-plus innings, charged with eight runs. That deficit grew to 8-2 before the Mets\u2019 offense roared back. Juan Soto carried the charge with two home runs and three RBI, while Mark Vientos and Francisco Lindor also went deep, helping New York erase the gap and even the game in the sixth inning.<\/p>\n

Chris Devenski steadied things with three scoreless innings in relief, but Miami had the final word. In the seventh, Connor Norby\u2019s sacrifice fly off Tyler Rogers pushed the Marlins back ahead, and Edwin D\u00edaz\u2019s struggles in the ninth widened the margin. Norby again delivered, lacing a two-run double that gave Miami breathing room and left the Mets without another answer.<\/p>\n

The loss squandered New York\u2019s chance to build momentum after a strong Friday win and dropped them to 73-63, now 5.5 games behind the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League East.<\/p>\n

The Mets look to split the four-game series against the Marlins on Sunday afternoon with Kodai Senga set to face Miami\u2019s Sandy Alcantara. The first pitch is set for 1:40 p.m.<\/p>\n
