In a critical game for the Mets, David Peterson pitched 7.2 innings, securing a vital win against the Dodgers 5-2 without exhausting the bullpen. This performance matched his career high and marked the longest innings pitched by any Mets starter this season. Peterson's dominance was exemplified by holding star player Shohei Ohtani hitless. His recent form has been impressive, accumulating a 2.50 ERA over the last six starts, especially important as the Mets await the return of injured key players.
"Especially with the bullpen we had, he knew the assignment. That's a big boy performance right there."
"You have that in your mind. The situation that happened [Friday] night sucked... I wanted to give these guys everything I had."
"He made him look human. It's all about executing. He's just another hitter, one of nine in their lineup."
"He's been especially good in his past six starts, with a 2.50 ERA."
