Logan Webb started his first game at home since signing his five-year, $90M extension and after a couple of rocky frames settled in and mowed 'em down for his first "W" of the season. He gave up two runs on five hits including another homer (solo shot by Brandon Nimmo) but walked only one and whiffed eight in seven innings. He faced 25 batters and threw 98 pitches. It's exactly the kind of start the team is paying him to deliver. The lineup jumped all over Mets lefty David Peterson for four runs in the 1st (a three-run bomb by Brandon Crawford was the big blow) and they scored two more in the 2nd and another in the 5th (Wilmer Flores homer) to keep the pressure on.
