A night after getting dominated by Clayton Kershaw, the Mets hosted Game 2 of their weekend series against the Dodgers, this time featuring the major league debut of their touted outfield prospect, Michael Conforto.
Southpaw Jon Niese climbed the hill for his 19th start of the season, and was opposed by Los Angeles pitcher Ian Thomas, whom made only his 8th appearance of the season, and his first major league start.
Unfortunately, Jon Niese‘s night at the office started badly, then worsened in the 2nd inning, and completely fell apart by the 3rd.
