Rangers 10, Mets 8
- Well, that was a weird game.
- Dillon Gee v. Jacob deGrom had Rangers fans braced for ugliness, highlighted by lots of Rangers batters striking out. Gee was replacing Nick Martinez, who would have started today but who was pressed into duty over the weekend in a relief role. And Rangers fans worried about Gee had their fears justified.
- Gee faced 21 batters today, and gave up 8 hits (including 3 home runs) and 4 walks. Somehow, miraculously, only four runs scored in Gee’s 3.1 IP, as he got a GIDP in one inning, left the bases loaded in an inning, left two runners on in another inning, and had two ducks on the pond when he was lifted with one out in the fourth.
