The New York Mets have won four straight games and five of their last six, thanks to their starting pitchers, who have allowed one run or fewer in each outing.
The Mets took the opener of their three-game series against the Cubs with a 6-1 victory on Monday night at Citi Field. Jacob deGrom bounced back from two bad starts with his second career complete game, allowing five hits and four walks while striking out six.
