The Mets’ series opener in Milwaukee against the Brewers didn’t go well. And that’s saying it in the nicest way possible. Between pitch clock violations, PitchCom issues, no offense, and a subpar performance from the pitching staff, the good feelings from New York’s series win in Miami were temporarily lost. But hey, at least Luis Guillorme lightened the mood with his relief appearance, right?
With the game already out of reach heading into the bottom of the eighth, manager Buck Showalter used his resident Swiss army knife to save bullpen arms. Guillorme responded by tossing a scoreless inning to close the book on the Brewers’ offense.
