Reds-Mets game suspended by rain, score tied 1-all after 6
NEW YORK (AP) -- Matt Harvey stayed steady in the rain and Curtis Granderson homered again for the New York Mets before their game against the Cincinnati Reds was suspended after six innings Saturday with the score tied 1-all.
Brandon Phillips had an RBI double for the Reds, giving him a hit in all 31 road games he's played against the Mets.
Rookie right-hander Michael Lorenzen matched Harvey most of the way and received relief help from Manny Parra, who retired Granderson on a 3-1 pitch with the bases loaded to end the sixth.
With the rain getting heavier, umpires stopped play and signaled for the tarp. More showers were in the forecast at night, and the game was called following a 53-minute delay. All statistics will count.
The game will resume Sunday at 1:10 p.m. with the top of the seventh inning before the teams play their previously scheduled series finale. Carlos Torres was announced as New York's initial reliever after Harvey was pulled for a pinch-hitter in the sixth.
