Harvey battles through inconsistent start, but he and TC see it as a positive

Mets RHP Matt Harvey pitched 5 1/3 innings on Wednesday, allowing three runs on six hits and four walks while striking out five against the Diamondbacks.

"If I could go back and change a couple pitches, I would," Harvey told reporters after the game. "But overall, I felt much better today and probably the best I've felt in two years. It's definitely a positive."

"Harvey took a step forward," manager Terry Collins added. "He maintained his velocity. He located very well from the fourth inning on, and he made a lot of good pitches. It's a right step.
