| LHP Steven Matz |
The New York Mets lost to the Philadelphia Phillies 9-6 tonight in second game of doubleheader and dropped their record to 52-68. LHP Steven Matz made his first start since coming off the disabled list and had a difficult outing allowing six runs (four earned) on five hits with one walk and two strikeouts in two innings. RHP Paul Sewald came in next and threw a scoreless bottom of the third inning. RHP Drew Smith followed and threw two scoreless innings in the bottom of the fourth and fifth innings. RHP Bobby Wahl gave up two runs in the bottom of the sixth. RHP Tyler Bashlor gave up a run in the bottom of the seventh, but stayed in for the bottom of the eighth and threw a scoreless inning.
The offense got off to a fast start after SS Amed Rosario and 2B Jeff McNeil doubled to start the top of the first inning and LF Michael Conforto drove them in on a two-run double. The bats were silent until the top of the seventh inning when Rosario hit an RBI double and Conforto hit an RBI single. In the top of the ninth inning, Conforto drove in his fourth run of the game with a single and 1B Wilmer Flores also hit an RBI single.
The Mets next game is at 6:05 P.M/ tomorrow night against the Phillies.
