It's April 20th. This is New York Metz News today, AI-powered updates on your team. I'm Cory with the story. The Metz just suffered their 11th straight loss, dropping a heartbreaker to the Cubs in Chicago on Sunday. They nursed a one-nothing lead into the 9th, but closer, Devin Williams blew the save, and Chicago walked it off in the bottom of the 10th. The team left six runners on base and win just one for nine with runners in scoring position. Major Carlos Mendoza called it a tough stretch, saying they have not been impacting the ball or hitting it hard enough lately. Players like Francisco Lindor, owned up to the slump, admitting clutch moments have slipped away. Lindor struck out with a chance to drive and runs, and he stressed, everyone needs to execute better as professionals, no excuses. pitcher David Peterson and Williams echoed that, pointing fingers in the mirror instead of at coaches or the front office. They called this one of the most talented rooms in baseball, but right now, wins are not stringing together.

Juan Soto's return from injury could help lengthen the lineup, but Lindor says it is on the whole team to step up. They give Monday off to regroup before hosting the Minnesota Twins for three games starting Tuesday. Time to turn the page and fight back.
