Friday night, the New York Mets and San Francisco Giants were locked into a pitchers duel. Jacob deGrom, one of the game’s best pitchers, was his typical self striking out ten batters over seven scoreless innings. Opposing deGrom was Tyler Beede for the Giants who was just as good — lasting one inning longer striking out only five but kept the Mets scoreless into the ninth inning. Old friend of the White Sox, Luis Avilan, pitched a scoreless ninth for the Mets, and very popular trade target Will Smith matched with a swift 1-2-3 inning. There was no score after nine innings.
What if the game ended then?
Well, we would have missed out on how Pablo Sandoval delivered the game-winning hit.
