Here is another little interesting tidbit about those amazing Mets. The Mets were 0-70 when trailing after 8 innings. Not a single 9th inning rally to win a game. They were the only team in baseball to not have a single 9th inning rally to win a game. The Texas Rangers had (7) 9th inning Rallys to win games, Even the worst team in Baseball, Colorado had 6.

The Mets have the likes of Juan Soto and Pete Alonso. You mean to tell me they couldn't rally in at least one game they were losing maybe 4-3 or 5-4 and score a couple runs in the 9th to win?

And as it turns out, if they had, even once, they would be in the playoffs.
