BOSTON — Suddenly, Jose Reyes is only the second-worst New York reliever this week.
At least the Mets shortstop got some outs in his pitching debut against the Nationals on Tuesday night. Jonathan Holder’s Thursday night was worse. He faced seven batters in the third inning of a 15-7 loss to the Red Sox and all seven reached base and scored.
According to baseball-reference.com, Holder became the first Yankee to face seven batters and not record an out since Bob Kammeyer in 1979. Kammeyer surrendered eight runs in an appearance and never pitched in the majors again.
