Final Score: Phillies 4, Mets 2
The story in New York will revolve around the Mets’ failure to retain Zack Wheeler two seasons ago. They could have had one of the most dominant rotations in the history of baseball if it wasn’t for the previous ownership and front office group’s stubbornness and arrogance.
Instead, Wheeler is delivering gem after gem for the division-rival Phillies. He threw seven innings of shutout ball against his former club. It’s what the Phillies can reasonably expect out of their stud right hander.
