Mets Avoid Shutout in Canada, but the Road Trip Still Ends on a Sour Note. In a game that seemed destined for a shutout, Mets outfielder Carson Benge came through with a crucial play in the eighth inning, clearing the fence and preventing what would have been a dismal conclusion to the team's trip to Canada. The late-inning heroics were not enough to salvage the series, however, and the Mets will still be heading home with a disappointing record. The team's struggles on their Canadian swing have raised questions about their performance and consistency, and it remains to be seen how they will bounce back from this lackluster trip.
