This was a nightmare game for Starling Marte.
By the time Devin Williams came set and threw his third pitch to Starling Marte, it was almost predictable.So with the bases loaded and two outs in the ninth inning — and the Mets trailing the Brewers by a run — Williams, of course, threw another changeup.
“When you got a guy that’s changeup is an out-pitch, any over-aggressiveness plays right into his hand,” manager Buck Showalter said about Marte facing Williams. After the Brewers took the lead in the seventh inning on a sacrifice fly, Marte had a chance to tie the game with one out and the bases loaded.Pinch-hitter Danny Mendick reached on a fielder’s choice when Milwaukee third baseman Brian Anderson made an error.That set up Marte to build on his 24 RBIs and inch closer to the 63 that he compiled during his All-Star campaign in 2022.In that situation, Showalter said, Marte needs to try to get the ball up.
