Well the Marlins finally beat the Mets in 2015 last night and set up a rubber game for the conclusion of the series. Montero had a good start last night but the Mets roster let him down in two ways. First, there were several run scoring opportunities that they squandered throughout the game. Second, the defense in the 6th inning led to a series of events that led to 3 runs being scored. The Mets were able to tie it back up late, but Carlos Torres had a rough outing with control issues and the Mets couldn’t push in another run late.
