Game Summary
Pelf puts up a strong start, bullpen was 2/3rds good, and offense was already backing their bags. Mets fell in series finally 3-1.
Game Notes
Mike Pelfrey continues a decent run of outings. Seven innings pitched with only four hits and two runs given up. No walks and six K’s to go along with that as well. Despite Pelfrey possibly turning his season around, I still feel like the Mets should look at opening him up to being on the block in the offseason. Seeing what we can get, or finally getting Mejia his starts when he rebounds from his injury. Anyway, Pelf receives his fifth loss.
Acosta, Byrdak, and Carrasco combine for an inning pitched, with Acostalypse showing up.
Offense was as flat as I’ve ever seen it. With only four hits, and an RBI from Mr. MVP, Jose Reyes.
Red hot, Murphy goes 2-3. And rookies Duda and Tejada had a hit each.
Turning Point
Nothing much, all one sided.
Game Ball
Murphy and Pelf for being the only ones helpful.
