It wasn’t the prettiest of wins for the Mets, but Steve Cohen wasn’t mad in the end.
After the Amazin’s walked off against the Yankees, 4-3, in 10 innings on Wednesday night at Citi Field, the Mets owner took to Twitter to express his relief over the victory.
“That was a crazy game,” Cohen tweeted. “Too many mental mistakes but I will take it.”
Before Brandon Nimmo’s game-winning hit in the 10th, the story of the game largely involved the aforementioned mental lapses by the Mets.
In the top of the seventh inning, the Mets botched a double play on a throwing error by Jeff McNeil, allowing the go-ahead run to score.
As Isaiah Kiner-Falefa reached first, he then stole second and advanced to third and a wild throw by catcher Francisco Alvarez.
But Kiner-Falefa wasn’t done there, as he took a big lead off third and stole home when lefty Brooks Raley didn’t look him back and fired a pitch wildly past Alvarez.
In the bottom half of the frame, the Mets tied the game on a Starling Marte single, but Nimmo, who ran toward third as Mark Vientos was held up by third base coach Joey Cora, was thrown out trying to scramble back into second.
To make matters worse, in the top of the eighth, Jeff McNeil was called for a shift violation when he was holding a runner on second base.
In spite of the comedy of errors, the Mets prevailed when Nimmo got a measure of redemption with a booming double off the right-field fence to score Eduardo Escobar with the winning run.
A “frustrated” Cohen spoke exclusively to The Post’s Joel Sherman last week about the team and said he was likely not going to make major changes, even as the Mets have floundered in the first half of the year.
“When things get really bad, I’m not going to blow up,” Cohen said. “I don’t think that’s the proper response. I don’t think it solves anything, other than it gives people a one-day story. But it doesn’t really solve anything.
“There’s plenty of blame to go around from a performance point of view.”
The Mets are now 32-36 — with just two wins in their last 10 games — and are in fourth in the National League East.
In earning a split with the Yankees, it was the first full series they played in June that the Mets did not lose.
