"Mets fans everywhere," Cohen wrote on X. "I owe you an apology. You did your part by showing up and supporting the team. We didn’t do our part. We will do a post-mortem and figure out the obvious and less obvious reasons why the team didn’t perform up to your and my expectations.

"We are all feeling raw emotions today. I know how much time and effort you have put into this team. The result was unacceptable. Your emotions tell me how much you care and continues to motivate the organization to do better. Thank You to the best fans in sports."

Minutes after the loss, first baseman Pete Alonso said he was going to opt out of his deal and test free agency.

"There’s some great guys in this clubhouse, there’s some great people on the staff," he said. "And every single day, it’s just been a pleasure coming to work and putting on the orange and blue.
