They have lost five straight for the first time since 2021 and at 30-32 dropped 7 1/2 games behind Atlanta in the NL East.
Alonso was booed in pregame introductions and before his at-bat. A night earlier, Alonso homered in the third inning of a 6-4 loss and shouted from the dugout at Braves starter Bryce Elder:"Throw it again. Throw it again, please. Throw it again." Mets co-ace Max Scherzer gave up five runs and 11 hits, one shy of his career high, in 5 2/3 innings.
"Last night Marcell came up to me and gave me the pep talk I needed," Harris said after going 3 for 4 and raising his batting average to .181."Before my last at-bat last night he told my season was starting, and ever since then I've been hitting the ball hard and seeing it good."
