Major League Baseball team season
The 2018 New York Mets season was the franchise's 57th season and the team's tenth season at Citi Field . They attempted to return to the postseason after an injury-plagued under-performance in 2017. This was their first season with Mickey Callaway as manager, succeeding Terry Collins .
The Mets got off to a franchise record 11–1 start and ended the month of April with a 17–9 record, in first place in the National League East . However, they went 61–76 the rest of the way, and were eliminated from playoff contention by mid-September.
The Mets had a rough spring training with a record of 7–15–3 (ties). They ended the spring by winning an exhibition game 3–1 over the Las Vegas 51s .
The Mets began the regular season on March 29, 2018, with their home opener with a 9–4 win over the St. Louis Cardinals at Citi Field in Queens, New York . They ended up winning the first two games of the season.
On April 1, the Mets started the month losing 1–5 to the St. Louis Cardinals , finishing the series two out of three. After, they went on a 9–game win streak, which put them in first place in the NL East. They finished the month going 15–9 and having a strong win (14–2) over the San Diego Padres .
On May 1, the Mets started the month losing 3-2 to the Atlanta Braves at Citi Field. They went on a 6–game losing streak, but broke out of it seven days later by beating the Cincinnati Reds 7–6. The one highlight of the month was a three–game sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks . However, the remaining weeks didn't fare well.
The Mets started the month continuing their losing streak when the Chicago Cubs swept them in four games. They snapped their 8–game losing streak by beating their crosstown rivals, the New York Yankees 2–0 in the last game of the three-game Subway Series , handing the Bronx Bombers their first shutout loss of the season. The Mets finished the month 5–21, second to last place in the NL East behind their division rivals, the Miami Marlins , losing the first two games of the series to them.
The Mets started the month winning the last game of the series with the Miami Marlins by a score of 5–2. The team set a franchise record on July 31 for its worst loss ever, suffering a 25–4 defeat against the Washington Nationals .[ 2]
The Mets started the month continuing their loss from last month in a two game set to the Washington Nationals . The team also lost two in a row to the Atlanta Braves , however, they snapped their three game losing streak with a 3–0 shutout win in the next game against their rivals. A day after trouncing the Baltimore Orioles 16–5, on August 16, the Mets went on another tear and set a franchise record by scoring 24 runs in a win over division rivals Philadelphia Phillies ; the final score was 24–4.[ 3] They went on to win 3 out of 5 games. The highlight of the series, the Mets beat the Phillies 8–2 in the second annual Little League Classic at BB&T Ballpark in Williamsport, PA . The month ended with the Mets losing against the San Francisco Giants 7–0, finishing August with equal wins and losses at 15–15.
The Mets started the month with beating the San Francisco Giants two games in-a-row, taking 2 out of 3 games in the series. After that, they took 2 of 3 games from the Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies , thus spoiling their playoff hopes. They also clinched their 7th straight season with a winning record against the Phillies, one short of a major league record, in that series. The Mets then played a rainy 4-game series with the Miami Marlins managing to win 3 out of 4; the one loss by the NL Cy Young candidate Jacob deGrom . DeGrom pitched 7 innings and gave up two runs making his current ERA 1.71, but Jose Urena outdueled him.
