“#Mets-Nationals game<\/a> suspended by rain until Wednesday<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

To paraphrase a great baseball man, sometimes you lose, and sometimes it rains.<\/p>\n

The skidding Mets\u2019 series<\/a> opener against the Nationals was suspended in the top of the second inning Tuesday night after a nearly two-hour rain delay at Citi Field, with the Mets trailing, 3-1.<\/p>\n

The game will be resumed at 4:10 p.m. Wednesday and be completed as a full nine-inning contest. It will be followed by the regularly scheduled game, which now will be a seven-inning contest.<\/p>\n

Carlos Carrasco was tagged for two singles followed by Juan Soto\u2019s three-run home run in the first inning. The Mets recouped one run on consecutive doubles by Pete Alonso (ending his 0-for-21 skid) and Dom Smith in the bottom half of the first.<\/p>\n

Carrasco also allowed a leadoff single to Riley Adams in the top of the second before the umpiring crew called for the tarp. The rain delay lasted one hour and 57 minutes before the suspension was announced.<\/p>\n
