New York is in free-fall mode after getting swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers with a 10-3 loss Wednesday, failing to cash as a (+105) home underdog. It was the 8th defeat in 9 games for the Mets, and RHP Jorge Lopez vented his frustration by tossing his glove into the stands after getting ejected.
Arizona lost both games in the 2-game World Series rematch against the Texas Rangers, 4-2 on Tuesday and 6-1 on Wednesday.
