NEW YORK -- After a 5-hour, 35-minute rain delay, Zack Wheeler finally took the mound on Wednesday at 9:45 p.m. ET. He threw eight shutout innings, not fazed by the weather or anything else around him.
The starter was impeccable on the mound in the Mets' 13-0 win over the Marlins at Citi Field. Wheeler scattered just four hits and struck out seven, plowing through the Miami lineup.
Wheeler is now 9-1 in his past 11 starts. His ERA in that span is second best in the Major League, trailing only teammate Jacob deGrom.
