Mets starter Jacob deGrom was locked in a pitcher's duel with Stephen Strasburg and came out on top in a critical start for New York.
deGrom gave up five hits over seven innings of work, with his lone mistake a first-inning home run to Bryce Harper. He settled down after that and finished with nine strikeouts.
The Mets starter is 4-1 over his last 10 starts and has maintained his ERA at 2.40.
