Last night came down to missed opportunities, and the Mets look to reverse that with their second game against the Dodgers tonight. Yesterday, the pitching was off allowing 9 runs, and the Mets bats continuously left the bases loaded. Tonight deGrom looks to follow up his strong major league debut and the bats look to follow through against Ryu.
In deGrom’s first start he allowed one earned run and four hits over 7.0 innings, walking 2 and striking out 6. For Jacob, his major league debut was marred by a Mets offense that just couldn’t get runs scored. Tonight will (obviously) be his first start against the Dodgers.
Ryu is 3-2 on the season over 7 starts and 39.0 innings with a 3.00 ERA. Ryu is coming off of the DL today and his worst start of the season. He ended April with 5.0 innings allowing 5 earned runs, 6 total. Outside of another start where he allowed 8 runs,6 earned over 2 innings, he has been fantastic allowing 2 runs in one start and shutting out opponents 4 times. Last year he faced the Mets twice totaling 14.0 innings and 2 ER. The Mets have the following numbers against Ryu:
- Murphy 2-6
- Lagares 1-4, HR
- Duda 1-3
- Recker 0-3
- Tejada 0-2
- Wright 0-1
- E Young 0-3
Lets Go Mets!
