Pitching coach Dan Warthen and Travis d'Arnaud talk to Steven Matz during the second inning of the Mets' 6-3 exhibition loss to the Yankees on Tuesday night in Tampa.

TAMPA — There are any number of lessons Steven Matz is likely to learn from the rest of the Mets rotation this season and thanks to a couple of rough recent outings, he can add another to the list.

After coughing up five runs in the second inning of Tuesday’s 6-3 loss to the Yankees at George M. Steinbrenner Field, Matz recovered and managed to toss two scoreless frames before departing for the night.
