Rk - GCL Mets (16-34)_______________________________

NO GAME (SCHEDULE)

Star of the Night

Daniel Bryan Jake deGrom was perfect for five innings, Steven Matz struck out 8 of the 20 batters he faced, Robert Gsellman pitched seven strong innings, and Brandon Nimmo went 3-6 with a double, two walks, and three RBI in the combined day and nightcap of Savannah's doubleheader. All things considered, I am going to give the star to deGrom.

Goat of the Night

HHH Casey Kotchman. Seriously. He hit a comebacker that struck Michael Fulmer, causing him to leave the game early because of a possibly shoulder injury. No bueno.
