It has been an attractive year for most of the New York Mets.
Their stars have generally played like stars, and their early pitch has been unexpectedly excellent, allowing them to compile the best records in the National League.
But Tampa Bay rays are far from sweeping their three-game series vs. hosts New York, thanks to some former Mets, who played an important role in 7–5 win on Friday and won 8-4 on Saturday.
Tampa Bay will shoot for sweep on Sunday afternoon.
The Rage has received three hits in the series from Jake Mangam, which in 2019 was the fourth round of draft pickle of Met as well as Eric Orz on Friday night with concrete relief work-which were with Mets in the last season-and Edwin UKTA (2023).
Orz won and Uceta gave a 2/3 scorer innings to get the ball in the ninth for its 13th Save.
“When I draft and spent four years with Mets, it was where, like, your dream was destination,” Mangam said. “So to reach here and play a game here, really good. The great environment. Really loud. Really crowd.”
And so far at the end of this week, it is really suited for bats of rays. He has 25 hits in the series, which continue the major trend during an increase of 17–6 in their records.
He opened Saturday’s game with a fourth innings of five runs.
Tampa Bay Manager Kevin Cash said, “More good batsmen, and we created a lot of traffic.” “We have done a lot of things well, getting big hits and capitalization on our occasions.”
They will try to complete the sweep behind the right-handed Shane Baz (5-3, 4.97 ERA). He last worked on Monday night during a 10–8 victory in Boston, obtained no-decision after 5 1/3-inning stent, who conceded him three runs from three hits and three runs with five strikes. This will be his first career game against New York.
Meanwhile, the Met’s will call the right-handed griffin canning (6–2, 3.22) to try to recover the closing of the series. He last picked the last time on Tuesday night, in which no decision was received in Washington’s 5-4, 10-inning victory. Canning conceded four runs on seven hits and two walks in 5 1/3 innings.
Five career outings (four beginnings) against rays are 1-2 with 4.01 ERA. He has hit 27 in 24 2/3 innings, but has received three homers.
While New York faced the loss of its second series in 13 series in the City Field, he received relatively good news on the injury front. The Wright-Hand Kodai Sangga, who left the 4–3 win over Washington on Thursday with a hamstring injury in the sixth innings, was diagnosed with grade 1 hammstring strain and probably not remembered for more than 15 days that he is scheduled to sit on the injured list.
Met’s manager Carlos Medoza said, “Hopefully he is a symptom-free and we will return it again.” “We feel like this is relatively good news here. I think we are in a good place, and I am not guessing any issue here.”
