Mets go up 2-0 in the 2015 NLCS as they jump out to a 3-0 lead in the 1st on a David Wright RBI double and Daniel Murphy 2-run homer. Mets add another run in the 3rd on Yoenis Cespedes RBI single. Noah Syndergaard throws 5 shoutout inning before running into trouble in the 5th. After Kris Bryant double drives in the Cubs first run of the night, Jon Niese is called upon to face Anthony Rizzo. Niese strikes him out ending the Cubs only threat of the game as the Mets pen hold them to just two singles the rest of the way.
NY Post: "“My job was to stop the momentum and fortunately, I was able to do that,” said Niese, who recorded perhaps the biggest out in the Mets’ 4-1 Game 2 victory Sunday that led to a commanding 2-0 lead in the series that now shifts to Chicago."
NY Post: Daniel Murphy homers again to lead Mets to 2-0 NLCS lead. "Murphy’s franchise-record-tying fifth postseason homer — a two-run blast in the first inning against Cubs ace Jake Arrieta — set the tone on a night Noah Syndergaard had electric stuff and guided the Mets to a second straight victory to begin this series...Overall, Murphy is 10-for-28 (.357) with five homers and eight RBIs in the postseason."
NY Post: "And with a three-run lead, the Mets rarely see a more soothing sight than Familia heading to the mound in the ninth. There was a botched play at first for a single, but Familia did what he usually does, what he did 43 times in the regular season and now four times in the postseason. He got a save."
Baseball Reference: 2015: In Game 2 of the NLCS, the Mets get to Jake Arrieta with three 1st-inning runs, one on a double by David Wright, and two on a homer by Daniel Murphy, to win, 4 - 1, over the Cubs. Rookie Noah Syndergaard is the winner.
10/18/2015 David Wright’s first inning RBI double and Daniel Murphy’s two run homer give the Mets an early lead and they never looked back. Murphy’s blast brings his consecutive games with a homer to four, as Syndergaard and the bullpen enable the Mets to a 2-0 lead in the NLCS. pic.twitter.com/gZRnC3busL
