The Mets routed the Phillies by a score of 9-0 at Citi Field on Tuesday night behind a brilliant game from Zack Wheeler. (Box Score) Pitching Zack Wheeler got the ball for the Mets today and he has been looking more and more like second half-Zack with each start. His first inning, he gave up a one-out single to J.T.

Noah Syndergaard had a very weird start on Monday night in the Mets 7-6 extra inning win over the Phillies. He gave up a five runs in five innings but also managed to get 9 strikeouts and got unlucky at times. In the first inning, Noah worked around an infield hit in the first inning and struck out Bryce Harper and Andrew McCutchen while doing so. He mostly went with his sinker and slider in...
