The Mets look to win five in a row tonight as they take on the Pirates for game 2. Last night Davis knocked two out of the park as he hit the 30 homer mark for the season. He and the rest of the Mets offense (although the Pirates starter is left handed, so I guess that means Davis gets the bench today?) look to back up Collin McHugh who is 0-2 in 5 games and 3 starts on the season with a 3.86 ERA while pitching 18.2 innings and striking out 14 batters. Collin hasn’t pitched against the Pirates yet in his career and no one on the Pirates roster has stats against McHugh.
Wandy Rodriguez is 11-13 on the season while pitching in 32 games making 31 starts over 193.2 innings with a 3.76 ERA. In his last three starts he is 1-0 with a 4.32 ERA while striking out 12 batters in 16.2 innings. He made one start against the Mets this year pitching 7 innings allowing only one earned run, the Mets have the following numbers against Rodriguez:
Bay 10-22, 4 2B, 2 HR
Wright 6-21, 2 2B
Hairston 7-16, 3 2B, 2 HR
Davis 0-5
Tejada 3-4, 2 2B
Let’s Go Mets!
