Both runs wind up scoring after Lorenzen relieves Homer.

You mean to tell me that a guy who's barely pitched in 3 years and has a 7+ ERA this year might struggle going deep into games?
Well, clearly Bryan is going to have to "teach" Homer how to go deeper.

6-1 Mets
Lorenzen is bad but a real CF'er probably has that ball.
That was a nice diving play by Scheb for out #2.
Sweep the Brewers and then come into the big city and stink it up against this triple A collection.
one run in 13 innings against a guy with an ERA over 5.00 who walked 9 batters over that stretch.
Bryan just has to go for 7 innings out of his starters and then brings in Lorenzen. Isn't doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result the definition of insanity?
Tonight's Joe Nuxhall Star of the Game is Mets C Kevin Plawecki, who was 1-for-4 with a 2-run HR.
On pace for 69-93, as the Reds clinch a losing season with tonight's loss.
Who cares. They are not trying to win so what does it matter how Price handles his starters. What's pathetic is the hitting of these pitchers.
