Jacob deGrom was terrific and he combined with Adam Ottavino and Edwin Diaz to hold the visitors to just one run, as the Mets downed the Dodgers, 2-1, Wednesday night at Citi Field. The two best teams in the NL have played six games and they are tied 3-3. As wonderful as deGrom was, he [...]

After a streak where he retired 20 of 21 LHB, Joely Rodriguez has returned to earth. With a bunch of lefties due up in the seventh inning, Buck Showalter brought him into the game. Rodriguez gave up a run and the Mets ended up on the wrong end of a 4-3 game against the Dodgers [...]
