Mets’ offense goes quiet in loss to Diamondbacks in lost chance to build on winning ways

PHOENIX — About the only Force with the Mets on Saturday was the one they got the Diamondbacks to ground into in the sixth inning. On Star Wars Night at Chase Field, manager Carlos Mendoza’s crew honored a main character from the movie by producing a “Solo” run in their 2-1 loss. The Mets still have a shot at a third straight series victory on Sunday, when they complete this nine-game road trip, but their offensive shortcomings have mostly been an obstacle to assembling a significant winning streak.
