Mets win 2-4 behind a tight pitching line

The New York Mets won 2-4 in a game defined by compact run totals and notable work from both starting pitchers. The final margin was two runs, with the Mets finishing on the winning side of a 2-4 result. The pitching numbers supplied for the game underscore how closely the contest was held: Cesar Perdomo worked 6.0 innings and allowed 0 earned runs while recording 4 strikeouts, while Christian Scott pitched 4.2 innings, allowed 2 earned runs and struck out 7.

Perdomo’s line was especially effective. Over 6.0 innings, he kept the earned-run column at 0 and generated 4 strikeouts. Scott’s outing featured a higher strikeout total, with 7 over 4.2 innings, while he was charged with 2 earned runs. Those two starting lines kept the game centered on pitching rather than a high-scoring result, and the 2-4 final reflected that narrow offensive separation.

Jung Hoo Lee supplied a key batting line in the available facts, going 1-4 with 0 home runs and 2 RBI. His two RBIs represented the listed run-producing contribution from the boxscore, and his line fit the game’s low-run shape. There were no home runs in Lee’s individual line, further emphasizing that the supplied offensive detail came through RBI production rather than a long ball.

The Mets ultimately had the edge in the 2-4 final, but the available pitching details show an event shaped by starters who limited earned runs. Perdomo’s six scoreless earned-run innings and Scott’s seven strikeouts over 4.2 innings provided the strongest statistical definition of the game. With only a two-run margin separating the sides, the result remained a pitching-held contest from the information provided.
