So let’s recap Wednesday night’s Mets game against the Cubs. Matt Harvey was terrible again in a short, homer filled outing. Neil Walker left early with what could be a serious injury. And with a short bench, a pitcher had to pinch hit in a key spot. And some how, some way, the Mets won the game.
On his very first pitch of the game, Harvey allowed a home run to new Cubs leadoff batter Mike Rizzo. Rizzo did the same thing Tuesday in his first game at the top of the lineup (just not on the first pitch).
