Despite positive signs, Mets fall to Rockies
(MLB.com New York Mets)

Steven Matz allowed five runs in 5 2/3 innings in a 6-4 loss to the Rockies. Homering for the third consecutive game, Nolan Arenado drove home five runs against Matz, giving him nine RBIs in a three-game stretch. The Mets could not match that type of offensive output, going mostly silent after Todd Frazier`s solo homer in the first inning and Nimmo`s RBI single in the third.
