Jeff Brigham surrendered a two-run homer to Ryan McMahon, and the visiting Mets never recovered in a 10-7 loss to the Rockies between the raindrops.
DENVER — Coors Field took over on Saturday, producing the kind of wild Old West free-for-all that included a spirited comeback by the Mets that ultimately was wasted.
There were plenty of offensive highlights for the Mets , but they were largely obscured by Verlander’s second ugly start in his last three and the letdown by the bullpen. Starling Marte’s RBI single in the seventh, after his team had completely erased a six-run deficit the previous inning, gave the Mets their first lead of the night at 7-6.
“These guys, it’s a special group, and it’s one of those ballgames and Coors Field is one of those places you are never out of the game,” Verlander said. “It’s easy to mail it in in those situations as an offense so to be able to stay focused and have good at-bats and give us a hell of a chance to win a baseball game, it was impressive.”Verlander allowed six earned runs on nine hits and one walk with two strikeouts over five innings.
Randal Grichuk, Harold Castro and Nolan Jones all singled in succession, with the last of those hits giving the Rockies a 1-0 lead. Alvarez’s celebration in the third inning after hitting an apparent triple cost the Mets an opportunity at a run. Alvarez hit a ball into the right-center gap and kept running until he had reached third base, sliding in head first.
