Mets’ losing streak moves to 12 games after painful collapse vs Twins

WWE star Danhausen tells Fox News Digital that the "curse" on the New York Mets has yet to fully be lifted.

The light at the end of the New York Mets’ clubhouse tunnel appeared bright after Francisco Lindor hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the third inning, and starter Nolan McLean was mowing down Minnesota Twins batters, taking a no-hitter into the sixth inning.

The Mets’ losing streak, sitting at 11 games as they returned home on Tuesday, the longest it’s been for the franchise since 2004, was on the way to ending at Citi Field.

Until it wasn’t.

McLean’s no-hitter ended when Matt Wallner singled to lead off the sixth inning, but the young starter who was featured in Team USA’s World Baseball Classic rotation was able to get the next two batters out. But his Team USA teammate, center fielder Byron Buxton, gave all Mets fans a "here we go again" moment when he hammered a two-run homer to left field to cut New York’s lead to just one run.

McLean came out to the mound for the top of the seventh inning instead of manager Carlos Mendoza going to the bullpen, and Luke Keaschall tied the game after singling home Kody Clemens, who doubled to right field just an at-bat prior. It was a 3-3 ball game, and just like that, the Mets’ losing streak was getting close to extension.

The wheels fell off in the top of the ninth inning, as reliever Devin Williams, who has struggled in his previous two outings, ensured the losing streak continued.
