The Marlins defeated the Mets, 2–1, in Miami today.
For a full recap and boxscore, go here.
The least you need to know…
- Johan Santana pitched seven innings, and allowed just three hits.
- Daniel Murphy dropped a routine pop-up with two outs, and two men on, who, when the ball dinked off his glove and rolled through the grass, rounded third and scored the Marlins only two runs.
- The Mets were 1 for 5 with runners in scoring position.
Murphy, following the game, said:
“Inexcusable… Johan threw the ball really well and deserved a lot better than that. I’m better than that. It won’t happen like that again. I was lazy to the ball and I got exposed for it. I didn’t get back. I got exposed, and it cost us.”
The Mets play their first-ever regular season game in Citi Field tomorrow against the Padres at 7:10 pm.
