Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom struggled through his worst start yet Thursday, in a 7-4 loss to the Cubs.
After opening his career with four straight quality starts, deGrom failed to live up to that standard this time around. He was tagged for four runs on five hits and three walks in five innings of work, while striking out a career-low three batters on 90 pitches.
Despite his worst outing, deGrom actually didn't take the loss this time around, instead settling for a no-decision. He remains winless through five starts, however, carrying an 0-2 record and 3.19 ERA into his next outing, set for Wednesday against the Brewers.
