Last night, the Mets continued to shine and picked up another win as they defeated the Miami Marlins. While Adrian Gonzalez wasn’t in the starting lineup, he came off the bench and hit a two-run double to give the Mets a lead of 2-1 in the eighth inning.
It’s surprising that he’s doing well at the plate. Coming off an abysmal showing in Port St. Lucie this spring, in which he wasn’t seeing the ball well in Grapefruit League action, it seems that all he needed was to step into a batter’s box at a major league ballpark.
