NextImg:Heroes, zeros from Mets’ Game 3 loss: Walker Buehler buoyed Dodgers

Heroes, zeros and the inside pitch from the Mets’ Game 3 loss to the Dodgers on Wednesday:

Kiké Hernández, who hit .229 with a .654 OPS in the regular season, is Mr. October yet again.

His two-run homer against Reed Garrett in the sixth quieted most hopes of a Mets comeback, and his eighth-inning single provided another base runner ahead of Shohei Ohtani’s dinger.

Francisco Alvarez’s error led to the Dodgers’ first two (unearned) runs, and his offensive struggles continued most meaningfully with a bases-loaded strikeout in the second inning. 

Walker Buehler, who pitched to a 5.38 ERA in the regular season, was not overpowering but managed to hold the Mets scoreless for four innings.

Left on base by the Mets, who had their chances and whittled them all away.
