Metstradamus - The Alternate Universe: Mets at Reds 7-21-20


The Alternate Universe: Mets at Reds 7-21-20
By  | 

Visiting teams have to love hitting at Great American Ballpark. The Mets, who scored 16 runs in three games there last season, are no different. Wade Miley was dynamite the last time he faced the Mets. Not so much today as he was torched from jump. Pete Alonso’s three run HR got the Mets going in the first, Robinson Cano’s two run double (generously scored a hit much to Nick Castellanos’ liking) in the third continued the onslaught, and then Cano’s three run HR in the fifth knocked Miley out.

But Rick Porcello wasn’t much better, as he gave the 3-0 lead right back with a three run HR to Castellanos, and a three run HR to Freddy Galvis in the fourth. Luckily for the Mets Porcello did what he was brought in to do, and that’s pitch six innings, after which the Mets had an 8-6 lead.
