Mets Clobbered Marlins 6-1 at Citi Field Saturday

The New York Mets clobbered the Florida Marlins yesterday on national TV 6-1. Jon Niese came off the disabled list and pitched a terrific game giving up only 1 earned run, 6 hits with 1 walk and 6 big strikeouts in 7.0 innings. Mejia pitched a scoreless 8th and Nieve finished it with a scoreless 9th. Ike Davis led the Met hit parade with 4 hits, 3 runs and 1 RBI. David Wright matched his home run total from last season by hitting his 10th, a 2-run shot in the 3rd inning. It was towering shot down the left field line that just stayed fair and landed on top of the Acela Club patio. Wright had 2 hits on the day. Jeff Francoeur went 2-for-4 with 1 RBI. Ruben Tejada also contributed with a 2-run double. There’s no place like home for the New York Metropolitans.
