Cyr gave up a solo home run to Brandon Nimmo for a 10-8 Mets lead. He allowed a double to Starling Marte in the next at-bat and retired Francisco Lindor on a popup to end the inning. “He had already hit a [three-run] home run earlier in the game on it, and I was really trying to drive it down and away and I just overthrew it. He put a good swing on it. He’s a good hitter. It’s just frustrating. I’ve got to go home and live with that one. I wanted this one and it stinks.”
“The bullpen has been taxed all weekend,” said Thomson, whose club dropped three of four games in the series to their National League East rivals. “Those guys did a nice job grinding out our starters, and we had to get into our bullpen early almost every game. I’m proud of them for continuing to fight. The entire team, really. Is it a disappointing loss to lose? Certainly. But I’m really proud of the entire club, just the way they fought. They just kept fighting.
