Brad Holt’s first FSL outing this season went as awfully as his previous EL outings did, meaning pretty awful. Not only did he give up 5 runs (4 earned) on 8 hits, he also put Tony Sanchez (Pirates 4th overall pick in 2009) in the hospital after hitting him in the face with a pitch, one of 3 batters Holt hit today.

The Mets offense had 6 hits and 2 walks in the game, but were just 1 for 6 with RISP, left 8 on, and struck out just 3 times. Wilfredo Tovar, Stefan Welch, and Richard Lucas took 0-fers.
