Mets' Jacob deGrom loses 1st game of the season ahead of Subway Series vs. Yankees Right-hander Jacob deGrom and the New York Mets lost to the Atlanta Braves, 3-2, on Thursday at Truist Park.

AUGUST 19, 2022 • NJ.COM

Tagged with first loss DeGrom (2-1) took the loss against Atlanta on Thursday, allowing three runs on five hits and no walks while striking out nine batters over 6.2 innings.

Impact In many ways, deGrom was his usual dominant self in the outing -- he racked up 20 swinging strikes and fanned nine batters while giving up just five hits. However, the right-hander surrendered a pair of runs in the third inning, and an infield single by the final batter he faced in the contest (Vaughn Grissom) came back to bite him when Michael Harris II followed with a run-scoring double off reliever Seth Lugo. DeGrom ended up being charged with a season-high three runs, but the loss does nothing to lessen his status as one of fantasy's premier matchup-proof starters.

Strikes out ten for win deGrom (2-0) gave up two hits and no walks while striking out ten over six shutout innings to earn the win in a 1-0 victory over the Phillies on Saturday.

Impact deGrom was his usual dominant self in Saturday night's pitching duel against Aaron Nola. He racked up ten strikeouts on 19 swinging strikes by peppering the zone with his hard fastball and mixing in a heavy dose of his nasty slider. The scoreless appearance drops his ERA to 1.62 over three starts this injury-shortened season. The 34-year-old right-hander now has 28 strikeouts in 16.2 innings pitched and has only walked one batter. It is worth watching if he can continue to increase his workload from the 76 pitches he threw against the Phillies. He is tentatively expected to make his next start at Atlanta.
