Mets starter Jacob deGrom was stellar as usual, surrendering no runs on four hits and a pair of walks in seven frames. He racked up eight strikeouts, tossing 70 of a season-high 109 pitches into the strike zone. His GameScore of 78 easily outstripped counterpart and Miami Marlins starter Dan Straily.
To his credit, though, Straily was pretty good as well. He lasted six innings and allowed just one run on four hits and three walks. He struck out five and earned a 58 GameScore, with 67-of-100 pitches in the strike zone.

deGrom nailed Derek Dietrich on the elbow for his second pitch of the game.
