PHILADELPHIA — Tylor Megill delivered his second straight scoreless start for the Mets, Brandon Nimmo homered and the Mets beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 2-0, on Tuesday night.
Francisco Lindor had an R.B.I. single for the Mets, who recovered from blowing a four-run lead in the eighth inning against Philadelphia on Monday night to snap a two-game skid.
Megill (2-0), who got a spot in the rotation only when two-time N.L. Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom was sidelined by a shoulder problem in spring training, again looked like an ace for 5 u2153 innings.
After throwing five shutout innings to win on opening day at Washington, Megill outpitched Zack Wheeler (0-1).
