It was cold. It was dark. It was depressing.

It felt just like October. 

In their first matchup with the Dodgers since last year’s NLCS loss, the Mets experienced a tough night at Citi Field. Despite a thrilling comeback in the ninth inning, they missed multiple chances to secure a walk-off victory, ultimately losing to the reigning champions, 7-5, in a rain-delayed, 13-inning game on Friday night.

The Mets, with a record of 30-21, have dropped six of their last eight games. Entering the ninth inning with just three hits and down by three runs, Jeff McNeil sparked a rally with a two-run triple.

Next, Tyrone Taylor delivered a game-tying single against Dodgers’ closer Tanner Scott. However, with the winning run at third base, Luisangel Acuna struck out, pushing the game into extra innings.

Juan Soto went 0-for-5 — and heard a smattering of boos, as his average dipped to .236 — and failed to capitalize on a walk-off opportunity in the 10th, before Pete Alonso — who failed to homer for the 15th straight game, matching the longest drought of his career — ended the inning with a deep fly to center.

Acuna opened his 11th-inning at-bat with three balls, and the bases loaded, but extended the game with a groundout. Luis Torrens, with runners at the corners, hit into an inning-ending double play in the 12th.

Following two scoreless innings by Reed Garrett, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza turned to Huascar Brazoban, who opened the 13th by allowing a run-scoring double to Teoscar Hernandez, then a sacrifice fly to Andy Pages.

Francisco Alvarez continued his struggles, making his fifth, and final out, at 12:56 a.m.
