Pat Murphy said Friday afternoon that his Milwaukee Brewers were going to “play to win” against the New York Mets despite already being locked into their postseason spot. One first-inning swing of the bat by Rhys Hoskins made it that much easier,

While in the hunt for one of the final two playoff spots in the National League, the Mets played one of their worst games of the season. The Mets surrendered six stolen bases, five walks. Also, they coughed up two wild pitches, one passed ball. They made an error. They gave up a grand slam.
