Yes, Spencer Schwellenbach was amazing today. In his last start, he had an 8/0 K/BB ratio but was tagged for three homers. This time, he kept up the torrid strikeout pace and then some, with 11 strikeouts across seven innings of work.
For a while, nothing really happened in this one, as the Braves had as much trouble with Mets starter Tylor Megill, recalled from Triple-A for this start, as the Mets had with Schwellenbach.
Schwellenbach worked around a two-out double by Pete Alonso in the bottom of the inning, and the Braves tacked on another run in the fifth thanks to a leadoff walk, a groundout moving the runner to second, and Orlando Arcia's hard-hit liner over third.
