The New York Mets have hit a new low, suffering their 10th consecutive defeat following a 4-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs. This marks the longest losing streak for the team since 2004, and with the season already spiraling, their playoff hopes are looking bleak. The Mets, boasting a $500 million roster, faced strong offensive performances from the Cubs, who handed them a crushing 12-4 loss earlier in the series. Despite the challenges, the team is trying to maintain a positive outlook and salvage their upcoming games.
