The Mets gave up a season-high nine runs and their offense had a quiet day as they dropped the series finale, 9-4, to the White Sox on Wednesday.

The Mets moved up Wednesday’s start time to avoid the oncoming weather, but even so Griffin Canning rained on the parade.

Shane Smith is slated to take the mound for Chicago against Griffin Canning for New York.The Mets are 5-1 in the last six games, while the White Sox are 0-3 over the past three contests. New York is 8-2 in Canning's starts as the Mets' eight-game winning streak with him on the mound was snapped in his previous start versus the Dodgers.

In Wednesday’s 9-4 loss, Vientos took the first step in turning his season around. With two runners on and two outs and the Mets down 5-0 in the third inning, he hit a high fastball into the netting just over the fence in right field. The three-run 368 footer, his sixth of the season, narrowed Chicago’s lead to 5-3.

In his first season after signing with the Mets in the offseason, star outfielder Juan Soto is leaving a lot to be desired, especially recently. During the team's win against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday, the 26-year-old went 0-for-4 at the plate with a strikeout.

The Mets came out ready to swing and did the bulk of their damage with an eyeblink of a two-homer, four-run first inning in a 6-4 win that sealed a series victory over the pushover White Sox in front of 34,944 at Citi Field, who missed most of the action if they arrived late.

The fourth inning ended up being his downfall when he allowed a run to score. It started with a lead-off walk to former Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman, who wound up on third after first baseman Miguel Vargas lined a double to center field.

Adrian Houser allowed three hits in six-plus scoreless innings Monday, but the Chicago White Sox lost 2-1 to the New York Mets at Citi Field.
