Notes & reviews

  • Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom left the game due to an injured leg.
  • Neris dropped ball for balk
  • Pitch in dirt as runner on 1st was going; ball retrieved and throw to 2bman, but runner on 2nd ran past 3rd and was hung between 3rd and home; 2bman Kingery ran at him and tagged him out 10 feet from home to tag runner; not a double play since the wild pitch is an intervening misplay
