After a horrific 18-9 loss last night, the Mets came back with a 7-5 victory over the Rockies this evening to take game 2 of the 3 game weekend series. Dillon Gee pitched very well, going 7 innings with 7 strikeouts, allowing 7 hits and 3 earned runs. His ERA for the season 4.85.
Murphy and Wright each had 3 hits, but Thole’s 10 game hit streak came to an end today going 0-4 with a strikeout. His season average is still at .340.
Duda smashed his 4th homerun of the year in the 2nd inning to give the Mets a 3-2 lead. The Mets 3-5 hitters were 8-15 in the game which is an excellent sign.
The Mets will have the rubber match tomorrow at 3:10 PM.
