Marte hit a two-out double against Trevor Megill with two outs in the ninth, and he was thrown out at home trying to score on Jeff McNeil’s single.

Another disturbing trend for the Mets is their underperforming offense. After Marte hit the first pitch of the second for a home run, Woodruff allowed one single and walked two over his final six innings. He retired the final 10 batters and handed the Brewers’ bullpen a 3-2 lead going to the eighth.

Center fielder Blake Perkins threw out Starling Marte at the plate to end the game as the surging Milwaukee Brewers hung on to defeat the slumping New York Mets 3-2.
