Marlins’ Bats Silent In Big Apple, As Miami Falls To Mets
NEW YORK (CBSMiami/AP) – The Mets got their fourth straight win, following up a three-game sweep of NL West-leading Arizona, as Jason Vargas returned to the rotation with five excellent innings.
AJ Ramos pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the sixth and the New York Mets beat the Miami Marlins 2-0 on Monday night. New York is 6-2 in its past eight games, 5-1 on this homestand and 24-19 overall.
The 35-year-old Vargas (1-3) had his previous turn skipped after three sloppy outings to open the season, but he shut down Miami with changeups and guile for his first victory with the Mets.
