Meet the Mets
The Mets tied the Astros 6-6 in a spring training game yesterday. Jack Wenninger started the game and threw two scoreless innings, but it was a game to forget for the Mets’ pitching staff with 13 walks given up in total. Mike Tauchman began his Mets tenure with a bang, launching a three-run home run in his first at-bat. Ronny Mauricio followed that with a solo home run of his own two batters later, and the Mets were up 4-0 before the first inning had concluded. Marcus Semien doubled and scored on a Bo
Bichette sacrifice fly, and A.J. Ewing drove in the final Met run of the game on a sacrifice fly of his own in the sixth inning.
