inGame: Mets 2 Tigers 0 (5th Inning)

by Matthew Cerrone on February 27th, 2008 at 2:41 pm

The Mets lead the Tigers 2–0 after five innings, thanks to a triple by Anderson Machado and a sac-fly by Ramon Castro.

Mike Pelfrey tossed two shut-out innings, while Brian Stokes, Matt Wise and Pedro Feliciano each threw one scoreless inning.

from what i can gather, pelfrey looked strong, setting down the Tigers in order during the first, and allowing just a single to Magglio Ordonez…he was aggressive, too, throwing a lot of strikes, and ‘pounding the zone,’ which is what we should all want to see

…by the way, word from St. Lucie is that Pedro Martinez will make his first start of the spring on March 6 in Viera against the Nationals…
