The Mets start the season 1-0 as they beat The Washington Nationals with a score of 2-0, great way to open the season.
Jacob DeGrom picks up where he left off last year going 6 innings giving up 5 hits no runs one walk and ten strikeouts and getting the win. It was amazing to see our CY young award winner have a good start on opening day. The same thing that happened to him last year happened to him now he gives up no runs while pitching and the offense is only able to score one run for him.
Robinson Cano had a day going 2-4 with a homerun a single and 2 RBI’s. This was great to see as we traded some of our minor leaguers to get him onto the team. This is exactly what we wanted out of Robinson Cano when we traded for him.
Another bright spot of the day is that after a rough first three at bats Pete Alonso hit a 2-out single in the top of the eighth inning.
Newly acquired closer Edwin Diaz gets his first save of the season on opening day.
Once again this is a great way to start the season back at it again on Saturday with Thor (Noah Syndergaard) on the hill.
