NY Mets at Milwaukee When: 8:10 PM ET, Friday, June 10, 2016 Where: Miller Park, Milwaukee, Wisconsin SportsDirect Inc. The New York Mets attempt to continue their dominance in the season series when they visit the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday for the second contest of their four-game set. After recording a three-game sweep of the Brewers at home from May 20-22, New York recorded a 5-2 triumph in Thursday's opener behind a strong seven-inning performance by Bartolo Colon. Despite sporting a .208 average, Curtis Granderson has belted 11 home runs this year and shares the franchise record for leadoff blasts with Jose Reyes after hitting his 16th with the club on Thursday. Milwaukee had its three-game winning streak at home snapped with the series-opening setback and fell to 2-1 on its six-game string at Miller Park. Scooter Gennett is wielding a hot bat, as he tied a career high with four hits on Thursday and has gone 9-for-18 over his last four games. Hernan Perez also has been productive of late, hitting safely in nine of his last 10 contests while not going more than one game without a hit since a four-game drought from May 11-14. TV: 8:10 p.m. ET, SNY (New York), FSN Wisconsin (Milwaukee) PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets RH Matt Harvey (4-8, 4.95 ERA) vs. Brewers RH Junior Guerra (3-1, 3.61) Harvey appears to have righted the ship as he has allowed just one run over 14 innings in his last two starts after surrendering 19 over 13 1/3 frames in his previous three outings. The 27-year-old native of Connecticut suffered a hard-luck loss at Miami on Sunday as he yielded one run and four hits in seven innings. Harvey, who never has faced Milwaukee, is 2-5 with a 5.18 ERA in seven road starts this season. Guerra's winless stretch reached three starts Saturday as he did not figure in the decision at Philadelphia after giving up three runs and six hits in six innings. The 31-year-old Venezuelan has allowed three earned runs or fewer in each of his last five outings and has worked at least six frames in six of his seven turns this year. Guerra, who will be facing New York for the first time, is 3-1 with a 3.55 ERA in four starts at home. WALK-OFFS: 1. The only member of the Brewers that has faced Harvey is 3B Aaron Hill, who is 3-for-9 versus the right-hander. 2. New York RHP Jeurys Familia is a perfect 20-for-20 in save situations this season. 3. Milwaukee RHP Corey Knebel allowed two runs in 1 1/3 innings Thursday after being activated from the 15-day disabled list prior to the game.

Frayed Knot Jun 10 2016 05:13 PM Re: IGT 6/10 Mets vs. Brewers Harvey Day!

2. New York RHP Jeurys Familia is a perfect 20-for-20 in save situations this season. He may be 20 for 20 but he's far from perfect.

Too many missing bats. Not sure why (a) Granderson isn't being dropped toward the middle of the lineup, and (b) Conforto is sitting against a righty.

If they could just raise their RiSP and 2-out/RiSP averages to merely pathetic levels they'd be in first place right now. But they'd have to go on a hitting tear just to get to pathetic.

And to think, the Brewers have scored two runners [u:1rgrm9ta]from 2nd base[/u:1rgrm9ta] over the last two nights (one later reversed) [u:1rgrm9ta]on infield singles[/u:1rgrm9ta] and yet we can't score them from 2nd on outfield hits.

Edgy MD Jun 10 2016 11:47 PM Re: IGT 6/10 Mets vs. Brewers Harvey Day!

Only the fourth time in team history the team has allowed three or fewer hits in a game that went 11 innings or more. The team is the first Wild Card team with a game-and-a-half lead on the second. They've won three in a row and sit two and a half off the division lead. All sounds pretty good... for a team not playing particularly well.

TransMonk Jun 11 2016 06:49 AM Re: IGT 6/10 Mets vs. Brewers Harvey Day!

That was a very fun game...even if not very well played. Lots of Mets fans in town, I'm guessing due to the 7 Line game on Saturday. Gelbs checking Twitter pre-game. I'm not sure what was up with these ass-eaters. Scored seats in front of the on deck circle. Sleeve of the guy sitting next to me.

Frayed Knot Jun 11 2016 07:11 AM Re: IGT 6/10 Mets vs. Brewers Harvey Day!

A quick synopsis on the recent hitting incompetency Over the last two games the Mets have had 22 at bats with 2 or more runners on base: 2 became Sac Bunts (both successful!!) and 2 were intentional walks, so we're really down to 18 here. Of those 18: - 4 resulted in Ks - 5 infield pop-ups! - 2 fly outs, neither of which scored a run (too shallow or with two outs) - 3 ground-outs (no runs) - 3 singles, but only two of which left the infield and only one which resulted in runs - and finally last night's line-out/fire-drill which somehow resulted in a run and only one out So BA-wise they were 3/18 (.167) and only 4 times out of those 18 did they get the ball out of the infield. Just 2 at-bats resulted in RBI(s): Plawecki's rather weak seeing-eye single (2 RBI) Thursday night, last night's FC/line-out that was first dropped and then misplayed (1 run).

Edgy MD Jun 11 2016 10:16 AM Re: IGT 6/10 Mets vs. Brewers Harvey Day!

So, the number of boners the Brewers’ middle infield committed on what eventually turned out to be the game-losing play: [list=1:3sq7nkmt][*:3sq7nkmt]Villar dropped an utterly catchable liner.[/*:m:3sq7nkmt] [*:3sq7nkmt]He elected not to go throw home. It would have been forsaking the double-play, but the presence of the force and hard-hit ball made it a perfectly sound (if not risk-free) option for preserving the tie.[/*:m:3sq7nkmt] [*:3sq7nkmt]He made a bad feed to second, further undermining the double play (which would have been a cinch had he caught the liner).[/*:m:3sq7nkmt] [*:3sq7nkmt]Second baseman Gennett still could have possibly held the bag while fielding that ball, but failed, and instead had to come off and double back for the force, killing any sliver of a chance remaining for the no-run-scoring double-play.[/*:m:3sq7nkmt] [*:3sq7nkmt]Gennett chased down a runner that was already out.[/*:m:3sq7nkmt] [*:3sq7nkmt]A runner that was safe (Flores) panicked and came off the bag, and Gennett ignored him, allowing a potential insurance run to reach third instead of ending the inning.[/*:m:3sq7nkmt][/list:o:3sq7nkmt] So yeah, if we can continue to hold teams to three hits or fewer over 11 innings, and get their go-ahead runs overturned on appeal, and just hold out until they eventually trip over their own feet and set themselves on fire, we should be good. Sound like a plan?
