The Mets play game two tonight against the Brewers. Last night the Mets beat the Brew Crew by the score of 2-1 as Capuano gave the Mets an excellent start and Beato, Izzy and Krod all gave an inning of re-insuring relief. A win tonight will make it 4 straight for the Amazin's as they continue their journey back to the .500 line. In tonight's game Pelfrey will get the start as he goes up against Randy Wolf.
Pelfrey is 3-4 this season with a 5.56 ERA. His last start was forgettable as he allowed 7 ER in the first 3 innings of work against the Pirates, before the Mets scored 9 unanswered runs and eventually took that game. He would finish that game with 2 additional scoreless innings and he looks to channel Pelf the Ace tonight in Milwaukee.Last season he made one start against the Brewers where he pitched 7.1 innings and allowed only 3 ER on his way to a no decision. The Brewers have the following numbers on Big Pelf:
Morgan 3-17
Nieves 3-14
