It’s poetic in a way.
A day after Francisco Lindor and Jeff McNeil, two of the most important players on the 2021 Mets (and likely beyond that), got into a heated debate on what was scurrying around in the dugout tunnel, the middle infield duo provided basically every part of the offense in the 4-2 victory on Saturday night.
Tommy Hunter, who has been a reliever for a better part of a decade, got his first start since 2012 with the Baltimore Orioles, though this was as an opener rather than a full-fledged starter.
