What do you do when you've got to make a critical start with your team in the MLB playoff hunt, but also have a child on the way? If you're New York Mets starting pitcher Jonathon Niese, you try to be in two places at once.
Niese only lasted three innings, giving up six earned runs on eight hits in what proved to be a 7-2 defeat to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. The night wasn't all bad as the 28-year-old lefty was able to see his wife, Leah, give birth to a newborn son on FaceTime, per ESPNNewYork.
