Pirates starting pitcher Charlie Morton tossed a quality start but settled for a no-decision Friday night against the Mets.
Morton coughed up a 2-0 lead, as he surrendered a run-scoring single to David Wright in the sixth and a solo home run to Kirk Nieuwenhuis in the seventh. The right-hander allowed two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out four over seven innings.
Morton allowed two earned runs or fewer in two of his first six starts this season. He is 1-2 with a 3.19 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP.
