Bullpen:

            Another great performance from the Mets bullpen, especially Dana Eveland’s three innings after Wheeler had to leave. Ever since Eveland was moved to the AAA rotation in April, he has been a very effective pitcher – 17 G (8 GS), 52 IP, 51 H, 19 R (17 ER), 13 BB, 63 SO, 6 HR, 4 HBP, 2.94 ERA combined between AAA and the majors.

            8 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 7 SO, HR

Looking Ahead:

The Mets start a 7-game road trip through Pittsburgh and Atlanta.
