In his last start against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Jacob deGrom did Jacob deGrom things. He delivered seven shutout innings of three-hit ball. Unfortunately, the New York Mets bats failed to show up to Citi Field.
This wasn’t an easy game for them to put some runs on the board. Hyun-Jin Ryu was deGrom’s opponent in this one. If you’ve paid any attention to the National League Cy Young race, you’d know he’s one of the contenders alongside deGrom.
It took an eighth-inning bases-clearing double from Rajai Davis to knock in any runs on this night.
