The Mets bounced back from a disappointing loss on Saturday afternoon to take the series win with a 5-0 victory over the Diamondbacks, largely on the back of some excellent pitching up and down the roster.
David Peterson, making his first start of the season for the injured Taijuan Walker, was just as good as he was in relief of Walker when he was forced out of his last start. Peterson scattered four hits over 4.1 innings, walking two and striking out four. He did an excellent job navigating the base runners he allowed. His key moment came in the fourth inning, when Starling Marte lost a ball in the sun and allowed a double to drop.
