CHICAGO — It was two touchdowns allowed by the Mets and two more players injured.

A Mets season that can’t end fast enough only worsened Thursday night, when Amed Rosario and Travis d’Arnaud departed hurt in their 14-6 loss to the Cubs.

Rosario exited with a tight left hip flexor and d’Arnaud with a twisted right knee, adding injury to the insult of getting swept in three games by the Cubs while getting outscored 39-14. The runs allowed were the most by the Mets in a three-game series in franchise history.

Rosario said he hurt his hip sliding into second base in the first inning. The rookie remained in the game until the fifth.

“It just feels like something that is maybe a little annoying, but doesn’t feel like anything serious,” Rosario said.

D’Arnaud’s knee injury occurred in the second inning, fielding Taylor Davis’ squib. But d’Arnaud remained in the game until the fifth.

“I lost my footing,” d’Arnaud said.

Seth Lugo was the Mets’ latest victim on the mound. The right-hander lasted only three innings and allowed eight runs, seven of which were earned, on nine hits and one walk.
