The Mets beat the Rockies on Friday night to avoid falling under .500 for the second time this year.
beat the Colorado Rockies 1-0 on Friday night to avoid falling under .500 for the second time this year.
Colorado put a runner on third with one out in the ninth, but Adam Ottavino struck out pinch-hitter Mike Moustakas and retired Charlie Blackmon on a liner to right field for his fourth save. "Good, good. Well-rested," New York manager Buck Showalter said."I thought he had better command of his fastball. Just a solid . His split was there some, not quite where it can be, but he's got enough secondary pitches. I thought he got a little better as the outing went on."
The Mets moved to 17-16 after getting swept in a three-game series at Detroit, where Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander both pitched. New York, which won for only the third time in 12 games, has only been under .500 once since Showalter took over last season. Antonio Senzatela allowed one run and three hits over five innings in his season debut. Senzatela had not pitched since Aug. 18 last year, when he tore his left ACL. The right-hander had a 9.95 ERA in two rehab starts for Triple-A Albuquerque.
