The Mets and Padres close out their series today as the Mets try to avoid losing another series in Petco Park. The game time, about 6:00 here, is rather interesting because it is essentially a night game here but a day game out west. Anyway, the Mets will be behind Dillon Gee tonight as he takes on Latos, the laid back starter the Mets missed the last week when the Padres came to town.
Gee is 10-4 on the season with a 4.07 ERA. His last two starts have been statistically rough as he has allowed 9 ER in 10 innings of work. In his short career he has never faced the Padres franchise nor has he faced any body on the Padres roster.
Mat Latos gets the start for the Padres and he is 6-11 on the season with a 3.80 ERA. So far this month he has made three great starts where he has pitched 21.0 innings allowing 5 ER (an ERA of 2.14). In his career he has faced the Mets twice pitchign 12.0 innings against the Amazins with a 2.25 ERA. The Mets have the following numbers against Mat:
Pagan 0-6
Wright 0-4
Harris 1-4
Bay 0-3
Let's Go Mets!
