Last night, the Mets made up one of their many rescheduled games this season playing a double header against the Braves.
Mets ace Matt Harvey started game one. He flirted with a no-hitter through six innings and struck out a career-high 13. Tiring out in the 8th, Harvey left the game with the bases loaded. The Braves scored three, but the Mets ultimately prevailed 4-3.
Zach Wheeler made his major league debut in the night-cap. Despite a shaky start with many walks, Wheeler pitched six shut-out winnings. The Mets won 6-1.
Harvey has been the Mets story this season. That is the good story--bad Mets stories are all too easy to find.
I hope last night's wins are the shape of things to come.
