The scheduled series finale between the teams Sunday was postponed until August due to rain.</p> </section><section id="section-7"> <p>The loss was the fifth in the last six games for the Mets, who were slipping into a familiar slump against the Marlins and Washington Nationals even before Juan Soto missed Sunday’s game due to an illness.</p> </section><section id="section-8"> <p>New York opened May by going 11-5 while outscoring its opponents 86-58 – a stretch that included a 5-1 homestand against the Detroit Tigers and New York Yankees from May 12-17 in which the Mets trailed in all of their wins.</p> </section><section id="section-9"> <p>But the Mets were outscored 28-14 by the Marlins and Nationals over the last six games, managing just two runs and 11 hits in the entire series at Miami.
