David Peterson - Tosses gem to earn 10th winPeterson (10-3) earned the win Sunday, allowing one hit and three walks over seven scoreless innings against the Brewers. He struck out eight.
ImpactPeterson saved his best performance for when the Mets needed it most, allowing zero runs for just the second time this year while allowing a measly first-inning infield single to Jackson Chourio. The eight strikeouts matched his second highest total of the season while the scoreless effort dropped his season ERA to an impressive 2.90 over 21 starts spanning 121 innings. The Mets still have work to do to make it into the postseason, but should they advance following Monday's double-header with Atlanta, Peterson would be required to work on short rest if he were to make an appearance in the Wild Card round.
