The Mets’ bats were quiet until a three-run six, highlighted by Brett Baty’s two-run home run. The Mets return to action tomorrow afternoon to face the Nationals.
Clay Holmes was spectacular once again, hurling 5 1⁄3 shutout frames and stretching out to 88 pitches. He struck out eight batters and only surrendered two hits. He finished his spring with a sparkling 0.93 ERA. His next start will be on March 27 for Opening Day against the Astros.
