Pirates Handed 8-4 Loss by New York
|
The New York Mets topped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 8-4, in NL action at Citi Field. The standout performance belonged to New York pitcher and Nizao, Dominican Republic, native Santiago Casilla. Casilla yielded 1 run over 6.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 2 hits, walked 2, and struck out 6. His record improves to 10-6. The winning continues for New York, with the latest triumph making it 7 straight.
Yasmani Grandal had a big 2-run double for the Mets in the bottom of the first inning. With New York leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 28-year old left-handed pitcher Craig Clark and swatted a double to left. It was his 12th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Mets ahead, 3-0.
"I'm not out there for personal accomplishments," Casilla told a New York Times reporter after the game. "I'm out there to help the team win, and that's what we did today."
