Simulated Recap: No Mets Runs Or GKR
Three batters into the game, Jose Altuve hit a two run homer off Marcus Stroman, presumably after a digital trash can was hit, giving the Astros a 2-0 lead.
Through four plus, Stroman allowed three. After that, Walker Lockett came in and kept the Mets in it until he allowed Alex Bregman to hit a three run homer (more trash cans) in the seventh.
Overall, the Mets were completely shut down by Zack Greinke in this 7-0 loss. The loss wasn’t the worst part of this. No, the worst part was not getting to hear Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez, and Ron Darling call this one. Hopefully, they return soon.
