The firing of Dave Eiland did little to jolt the New York Mets (35-40), who saw Walker Lockett fail spectacularly yesterday. Lockett imploded for six runs in the third inning and the Mets couldn’t recover, falling 7-4 to the Chicago Cubs (41-33). The Mets have now dropped seven of their last nine games and will try to bounce back and even their series with the Cubs this afternoon. First pitch for today’s game is scheduled for 2:20 p.m. at Wrigley Field.<\/p>\n
