Mets 13, Dodgers 2, for those who care

Almost forgot about the other game, back in Vero, where a skeleton crew of Dodgers took it on the chin. David Newhan, the Pepperdine product, went 4 for 4 with two homers for the Amazin’s. For the Bums, Chin-lung Hu went 3 for 5 and is hitting .381 (8 for 21) in the handful of big-league games he has appeared in. Marlon Anderson went 2 for 3 to raise his average all the way to .182. Matt Kemp homered. And Joe Mays pitched four innings, allowing two runs on six hits with five strikeouts. Dodgers are 16-14-1 pending the outcome of the Freeway Series opener, where it’s scoreless after one.
