Gio Gonzalez improved to (11-1) in 16 career starts in Citi Field with his win in the New York Mets’ home in April, earning the decision with 5 2⁄3 innings of work on the mound in a 5-2 win for the Washington Nationals. Gonzalez gave up two earned runs in that outing, which left him with a 1.78 ERA and a .179/.256/.268 line against in 101 IP in Flushing, Queens.
Asked yet again, for the umpteenth time what was behind his success in Citi Field, the left-hander said he really (still) didn’t know.
