Game 17 Thread: April 14 vs. Mets, 7p

Yoshinobu Yamamoto (2-1, 2.50) vs. Nolan McLean (1-1, 2.70).

Nolan McLean, tonight's starting pitcher for New York, was also the starting pitcher in the WBC Championship Game for the United States, lasting 4.2 IP, giving up 4 H and 2 ER (with 1 HR). He's got a 0.3 WAR and has not given up more than 2 ER in any of his three starts this season.

But he's going to need help, after the Dodgers blanked the Mets last night, 4-0, thanks to Justin Wrobleski's eight innings of highly efficient shutout ball. Would love to keep those Mets bats slumbering tonight (especially the bat of Francisco Lindor, batting .176 in the leadoff spot).
