This contest between the Mets and the Dodgers was a classic Jacob deGrom start through and through. He was matched up against another Cy Young Award frontrunner, albeit one who has struggled of late. Unsurprisingly, the Mets’ offense righted Ryu’s ship because they seem physically incapable of giving Jacob deGrom any run support.
Both pitchers certainly made their case for the Cy Young Award tonight. Each of them went seven shutout innings. deGrom gave up just three hits and Ryu gave up only two. deGrom struck out eight batters and Ryu struck out six.
