Carson Benge was the best hitter on the field Tuesday night, but it wasn't enough. The Mets outfielder went 2-for-4 with 2 home runs, 3 RBIs, and 2 runs scored in New York's 8–3 loss to Seattle.
Benge connected off Mariners starter Logan Gilbert and the bullpen, accounting for all three of New York's runs. It was a strong individual performance in an otherwise quiet night for the Mets offense.
New York managed just 5 hits total, and with 2 errors in the field, they were never in the game. Benge's night was the lone standout for a Mets team that dropped two of three in Seattle.
