NEW YORK -- As Chase Anderson took the mound on a chilly, windy Saturday night at Citi Field, Brewers starters had covered 70 innings this season and Brewers relievers, 60. Even with an extra man and sometimes two in the bullpen, it seemed an unsustainable ratio.
Anderson has been the exception, and he remained so against the Mets, denying baseball's hottest team a hit until the fifth inning and pitching into the seventh in a 5-1 Brewers win. Jonathan Villar and Jett Bandy homered off the Mets' Matt Harvey and Orlando Arcia added another home run in the ninth to snap New York's nine-game winning streak.
