Seth Lugo gets deGrom-like results, but also deGrom-like run support

Going into his debut as a starter this season, Seth Lugo emphasized that he would approach it like he had his relief appearances this season. It certainly showed, as Lugo was fantastic over his four innings of work, despite getting no run support from the Mets offense. Perhaps one day Lugo will join Jacob deGrom in therapy.

Lugo began his night bearing down after giving up a two-out double to Kris Bryant in the top of the first, jamming Anthony Rizzo inside on two pitches in a row, the second of which resulted in a little looper to Amed Rosario to end the inning.
