The Pirates put a stop to the Mets winning streak last night with a 10-6 score, so the Mets will try to get back on the winning track today with Hefner vs. Locke. Hefner is 2-7 over 79.1 innings this season with a 5.79 ERA. His last outing was abysmal as he allowed 6 hits and 7 earned runs without recording a single out. Hefner has never faced the Pirates in his young career, nor has he faced anyone on the roster.
Jeff Locke takes the hill for the Pirates. On the season he is 0-2 over 4 starts and 6 games total while pitching 24.2 innings with an ERA of 5.47. In his last two starts he has totaled 9.1 innings allowing 8 ER while striking out 10 batters. Jeff has never faced the Mets nor has faced anyone on Mets roster.
This is a game of mystery tonight.
Let’s Go Mets!
