The New York Mets lost in surprisingly disastrous fashion to the Colorado Rockies. After winning the first three games of the series, most fans expected a sweep with the final game being a formality. With Max Scherzer starting the game, the Rockies were going to have a tough time scoring. Losing 1-0, the Mets failed to put any runs on the board.

If the Mets want to win the NL East, they will need to hold their own against the Dodgers. This feat is easier said than done.

If they can't, the Mets will lose control of the division they have reigned over all season long.
