The Mets won their home opener in bizarre walk off fashion, taking the Marlins out 3-2. It was the rare situation where literally everyone in the ballpark knew what the deal was, but because the play wasn’t reviewable, the Mets got the very weird win.
Taijuan Walker started for the Mets, and was solid over six innings of work, giving up two runs on four hits, with two walks and four strikeouts. Sitting in the mid-90s and flashing some plus breaking pitches, Walker was at the mercy of an offensive draught from his team, who seemingly wasted opportunity after opportunity at the plate.
