00:00Let's take it across to New York.

00:04The Mets were playing host to the Boston Red Sox.

00:06It was the Mets going off as favorites in this one and they deliver in big fashion.

00:12Seven to two, they get the chocolates.

00:14What about the starting arms in this matchup?

00:16Crawford fans, eight there for the Red Sox.

00:18David Peterson with 11 strikeouts, Donnie, 19 between them.

00:23Yeah, fantastic performance.

00:24I said yesterday the Mets would win this game and they did because I thought the Mets had

00:28the better pitcher on the mound and a better matchup at the plate.

00:31But if you would have told me before the game, Crawford was going to go six innings pitch,

00:34two hits and two runs, as you said, I said, you know what, this game might be a little

00:38bit closer than we thought.

00:39But then you take a look at Peterson on the mound, who was spectacular, six innings pitch

00:43and 11 strikeouts, only giving up one run over six hits, spraying those around.

00:48That's exactly what you wanted to see and also making the most of your opportunities

00:51for the Mets.

00:52They're trying to hang in there.

00:53We saw yesterday the Atlanta Braves like a minus 350 favorite.

00:57You knew they were going to win their game and they did.

00:59So it's up to the Mets to sort of hold, serve and stay in there.

01:01And also runners in scoring position.

01:04The Mets only got three of them there, but drove two of those in, which is ultra impressive

01:08as well.

01:09So seven to two, the Mets continue to play great baseball.

01:12And how about Francisco Lindor, two or four yesterday, another home run, three RBI, lifting

01:17his average to 273 on the season, playing his best baseball here, Dubs, at the right

01:22time as well.
