The Mets’ ten-game road trip has been a very positive one, though last night was a reminder that David Peterson, perhaps, isn’t quite ready for a regular spot in the Mets’ rotation. Would tonight’s starter face a similar fate? Spoiler alert: He would.
The see-saw game had the Giants get on the board first, after Tylor Megill struggled in the first inning. A lead-off single and a walk put two men on with no outs. A double play later, and Joc Pederson singled home the first run of the game.
The Mets loaded the bases in the top of the second and, with one out, Francisco Álvarez grounded into a double play to kill the rally.
