New York Mets left-hander Sean Manaea tossed a gem against the Doogers on Monday’s Game 2 of the NLCS. Down 0-1 in the series, in an ostensibly must-win scenario for New York, Manaea played stopper, limiting the most potent offense in the Majors over 5+ innings to just two hits. The mistakes were minimal. Serving up a 3-1 fastball over the plate to all-or-nothing Max Muncy with a 6-run lead was warranted. Other than that homer, I can’t recall a ball leaving the infield. The trouble that chased Manaea in the 6th simmered because of the two walks to start the frame (4 BB in total) but boiled over when his defense bobbled and booted playable grounders behind him.
Should the Giants try to (re)sign Sean Manaea?
