Mets Post Game: Marlins 2, Mets 1 F/11

The Numbers:

  • Mike Pelfrey went 7 strong innings and the only mistake was a home run by Mike Stanton.
  • Justin Turner had 2 hits and an RBI double.
  • Jon Niese hit a pinch hit triple in the 11th…haha.
  • Bay, Beltran, Pridie, and Reyes all had hits today.
  • Igarashi gave up an RBI hit to a pitcher and earned the loss.
  • Byrdak, Iggy, K-Rod, and O’Connor had scoreless innings.

What a weird game with all the field troubles to a pitcher getting the game winning hit inĀ  the 11th. Also another pitcher hitting a pinch hit triple.

Mike Pelfrey was great against a team that normally hits him hard. He was attacking the zone and got quick outs.

Grade for the Game: B-

Mets Post Game: Nationals 4, Mets 3

The Numbers:

  • Chris Capuano started for the Mets and went 5 2/3 innings. He let up 10 hits, 4 runs, 0 walks, 2 strikeouts.
  • Byrdak pitched a scoreless 1/3 of an inning and Beato pitched 2 scoreless innings.
  • Ike Davis went 2 for 4 with an RBI double.
  • Reyes had 2 hits a double and a sac fly and David Wright went 0 for 4 with an RBI groundout.
  • Josh Thole had 3 hits.

Chris Capuano tonight was good for a 5th starter as he kept the Mets in the game. I like how he did not walk anyone, but was concerned over the 10 hits.

Ike Davis is hitting over .350 and it’s almost the end of April.

The Mets are still playing well, but just missed out today. 1 hit with RISP and they win today’s game.

The winning streak had to end sometime, let’s start a new one in Philly!
