Lucas Duda went 2 for 3 with an RBI but the rest of the team went hitless as the Mets fell to 0 and 2 in the 2015 World Series.
Mets took a 1-0 lead in the 4th as Duda's 2nd hit of the night plated Daniel Murphy after two Met walks.
Jacob deGrom sailed through the first 3 innings allowing just one walk. Royals loaded the bases in the bottom of the 4th on a walk, a Duda error and their first hot of the night but deGrom got Salvador Perez to groundout to keep the Mets up 1-0.
That all changed in the 5th and the Royals sent 9 to the plate scoring 4 runs on 5 hits and a walk. Royals starter Johnny Cueto did not allow a hot the rest of the way as he went the distance. The Royals tacked on 3 runs against the Mets Pen in the 8th en route to a 7-1 win.
Mike Puma NY Post: Mets go meekly, fall into 0-2 World Series hole. "Jacob deGrom became the latest Mets starter who appeared gassed Wednesday, and the lineup might as well have spent the day gorging at a local barbecue pit. Two games of the World Series are complete and the Mets need a jump-start."
Ken Davidoff NY Post: What happened to the fearsome Mets offense? "Remember Murphy? He was the toast of the town about three days ago, having homered in six straight postseason games to set a baseball record. Yet the Royals have pitched the second baseman carefully in this Fall Classic, and none of Murphy’s teammates have picked up the baton to keep this offense going."
NY Post: ‘Flawless’ Royals are exposing Mets’ butterfingers weakness. "It started with Yoenis Cespedes misplaying Alcides Escobar’s fly ball to left-center into an inside the park homer with the first pitch the Mets threw in the World Series...a Lucas Duda miscue on Ben Zobrist’s grounder to his right to star the bottom of the fourth...There was the Eric Hosmer liner to center that a charging Juan Lagares couldn’t come up with...And a ball that popped out of Wilmer Flores’ glove at short that was ruled a hit."
