Mets vs Nationals Post Game Recap 7/25
The New York Mets were unable to beat
on the majors best pitchers in Stephen Strasburg losing to the
Nationals by a score of 5-2 making it a 6 game losing streak now.
The Mets got a good start from Jeremy
Hefner but unfortunately he was out dueled by Strasburg and picked up
his 4th loss of the season. Hefner went a solid six
innings allowing six hits, two walks, three runs only two of which
were earned, and had a career high seven strikeouts.
Tim Byrdak had a tough afternoon
allowing a monster two-run homerun to Adam LaRoche scoring Bryce
Harper in the 7th inning, and put the dagger into the Mets
making it a 4 run game late.
Stephen Strasburg was fantastic in
picking up his 11th win of the season. Strasburg shut down
the entire Mets offense only allowing one run on four hits, and had
eleven strikeouts.
Ike Davis was the only Met to do much
damage off Strasburg, as Davis was able to his 16th
homerun of the season in the 2nd inning.
The Mets will be heading out west for a
11 game road trip, and will be sending top prospect Matt Harvey for
his first career major league start against the Dbacks All-Star Wade
Miley (11-5, 3.02).
