Clay Holmes, bullpen kept Mets in game before walking off White Sox in series opener

The Mets’ pitching continues getting the job done.

Clay Holmes put together another strong effort on Monday afternoon -- working around traffic to help keep the team in the ballgame as they struggled to get anything going against their former teammate, Adrian Houser.

The White Sox scratched across a run in the top of the fourth when the first two batters of the inning reached on a walk and a double and then Andrew Benintendi lined a sacrifice fly to shallow left field.

But Holmes limited them there with some help from his defense.
