Mets Fall to Marlins, Shed Playoff Hopes Amid National League Wild-Card Battle

News summary

The New York Mets experienced a disappointing end to their 2025 season, failing to make the playoffs after a series of poor performances culminating in a 4-0 loss to the Miami Marlins. Mets broadcasters Gary Cohen, Ron Darling, and Keith Hernandez openly criticized the team for a "slow-motion collapse" marked by mental errors and lack of attention to detail, particularly highlighting a disastrous fifth inning in a 6-2 loss to the Marlins that severely damaged their playoff chances. Despite leading the National League early in the season, the Mets' performance faltered over the last three and a half months, ultimately allowing the Cincinnati Reds to clinch the final wild card spot. The Marlins, who improved significantly this season, celebrated knocking the Mets out of contention, adding to the Mets' frustration. Both Mets and Marlins announcers expressed contrasting perspectives, with the Marlins commentary emphasizing their team's superior desire and performance against the Mets. This season's outcome has been particularly painful for Mets players and fans, reflecting a recurring pattern of late-season disappointments against the Marlins.
