Harvey Shows Control Issues, d'Arnaud Debuts in Mets Loss
Despite Matt Harvey (3-5) giving up only 2 runs today, he shows some signs of control issues, giving up 7 hits and walking 5 while only striking out 5 in only 6 innings of work. 3 times he missed spots with his fastball against Eduardo Nunez, who doubled 3 times and crossed the plate twice for the Yankees 2 runs on the day. Travis d'Arnaud debuted today for the Mets, going hitless but reached base twice on a walk and a questionable ruling of a hard hit ball up the middle that was knocked down by Robbinson Cano.
Yankee Ace C.C. Sabathia went 8 innings giving up 1 run and striking out 7. d'Arnaud will become the everyday catcher until further notice after hitting .290 in Las Vegas AAA ball and .457 in his last 8 games.
