The Mets were swept today at Citi Field, losing their fourth straight to the Cubs, 2-0. Jon Lester no-hit the Mets for the first five plus innings, but had his bid broken up by a Kevin Plawecki single. Lester walked three and struck out seven over his seven innings of work.
On the New York side, Steven Matz went seven innings, giving up two runs on five hits and two walks. He struck out seven, and continues to look improved on the mound. Even when giving up the two runs, Matz only allowed one extra-base hit all day.
