Matt Harvey gave up two homers in his first Citi Field start since 2013, but Lucas Duda provided enough offense to give the Mets in a contentious, eventful 6-5 win Tuesday.
Harvey went six innings, allowing three earned runs and five hits while striking out eight (no walks). He threw 95 pitches, 64 for strikes. . .Chase Utley hit the first of his two homers in the second. It was the first homer off Harvey in 61.1 innings, which was the longest such streak in the majors.
Of most concern were two Mets injuries — Michael Cuddyer left with a bruised left hand in the second when he was the second Met hit by Phillies starter David Buchanan.
