The Mets recorded just three hits in an 8-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday night.
-- Sean Manaea didn't have it against the Brewers' bats, allowing four runs through the first two innings and six overall on the night over 5.2 IP. It's his first start less than six innings since July 18 and the first time he's allowed six earned runs since April 29.
Jackson Chourio had his number all night long, singling on the first pitch of the game and scoring in a two-run first inning. Then in the second inning, a poor throw to first base with two outs extended the inning for Chourio to go deep and make it 4-0.
Manaea settled down for scoreless third and fourth innings, but Chourio singled to lead off the fifth and eventually came around to score on a groundout. He let up another lead off hit in the sixth as Joey Ortiz tripled off the wall in center, and then Cooper Pratt drove him in on a sacrifice fly to push the lead to 6-2. The lefty's night ended after allowing a double, having thrown 95 pitches.
-- Meanwhile, Jacob Misiorowski retired the first seven Mets he faced (three strikeouts) before walking Christopher Morel with one away in the third inning. The muddy mound began to cause the young star to slip a bit, as manager Pat Murphy came out to tell the umpires it's becoming an issue. The righty slipped again on a fastball to Francisco Alvarez, but got the inning-ending double play.
