The Mets try to look past yesterday as they take on the Brewers for game two of this series. Yesterday, after a very long rain delay, the Mets lost by a score of 6-1. Today they look to Capuano to lead them to victory against Randy Wolf.
Capuano is 9-11 on the season with a 4.58 ERA. He has thrown two nearly identical starts his last two times out where he has pitched 12.0 innings and has allowed 8 runs in them (6 innings per game, 4 runs per game) while also allowing 9 hits per game. When he faced the Brewers earlier this season he allowed only one earned run against them in 6 innings of work. The Brewers have the following numbers on Chris:
Hairston 5-20, HR
Lopez 6-14, 2B, HR
Braun 0-3
Fielder 1-3, HR
McGehee 0-3
The Mets have to deal with Wolf today who is 10-8 with a 3.30 ERA. In his last two starts, he has been very effective pitching a combined 16 innings allowing only one earned run (however in his last start, he also walked 5 batters).
