Sunday July 7th -- Mets 2, Brewers 1

Sunday afternoon in Milwaukee, Jeremy Hefner continued his renaissance as he was more impressive than ever as the Mets beat the Brewers 2-1. Hef was amazing only allowing 2 hits through 7 innings of work. One of those hits was a solo homerun by Jonathan Lucroy (#10) in that 7th. He went 7 allowed the 2 hits 1 run he walked 1 and struck out a career high tying 8. Offensively the Mets are still riding the hot bat of Josh Satin. After sitting out the past two games Satin continued where he left off when Ike Davis was recalled going 3 for 4 on the day with 2 doubles and an rbi. All-Star David Wright added two hits, Marlon Byrd and EY Jr. each added 2 hits as the Mets scattered 11 hits. Hefner gets the win he’s now 4-6…his era drops to a very impressive 3.39! Josh Edgin got the 1st two outs of the 8th and All-star snub Bobby Parnell pitched a 4 out save # 15. With the win the Mets take two of three from the Brew Crew and now stand at 37-48 (20-21 on the road). Overnight the Mets fly to San Francisco to start a 3 game set with the struggling Giants. The Mets other all-star Matt Harvey (7-2 2.27) coming off his worst start of the year starts for the Mets looking for win #8. Tim Lincecum (4-9 4.66) goes for SF.  https://www.facebook.com/MetsForum
