Cubs vs. Mets Game Highlights (6/14/21) | MLB Highlights

David Peterson he started against the Cubs at Wrigley Field on April 21st Mets lost that game 16 to 4 but he deserved much better just a real shabby defensive game for the Mets that evening going on the on the headsets to the replay center. So there's got to be some kind of an issue about a rule or maybe a facility or they do they not have good communication in which case they'd have to shut down the other team's communication right. We've seen that happen many times right. The umpires came to the headset to verify that the Cubs replay system is operational and apparently it is Peterson ahead 0 and 2 and Contreras Black's won the other way. McKinney coming toward the line and grabs the line drive for the first down of the night. Swing and a miss with a 96 mile an hour fastball. Peterson goes upstairs to strike out Bryant two down. The one one hit hard on the ground the first right to Alonzo he'll trot to the bag and plenty of time to retire the side Jake Garriott sinker slider curveball change up for Jake Garriott a really aggressive attacking the strike zone last time out a lot of first pitch strikes a good jump on the heater really good movement on his to Seymour. That's it on the ground right side. They get one there Alcantara safe at first Liddell beats it out. Now it's a bit of a struggle. That's hit just short they get one there back to first double play and Arieta gets exactly what he was looking for. Three and two to Maruz Nick and he pulls one down a third a chance for two VR and it's stuck in his glove. Guillaume with a turn and a turn to double play a one one bouncing ball up the middle but right to Lindor behind the second base bag he's got it throws out Hayward side retired. A dribbler off the bat of Billy McKinney picked up by wisdom a third and he guns to first in time hit to third wisdom backs up OK he's got an arm and Arieta gets him right there one two three go the man one out Alcantara grounded a short Lindor to his left gets in front picks it throws to first in time to get Alcantara. So guard goes to second and out two outs here in the third ball one strike throw to second out at second. So guard gets picked off to win the inning by David Peterson. Here comes the O2 now to Guillaume swing and a miss Arieta gets another strikeout Eddie O2 tap back to Jake who handles it under hands to Riz and Maruz Nick glides back calls it in and that's that no score first pitch Contreras it's a high fly deep left center Dominic Smith is under it shy of the track makes a one handed catch on his right side. Ryan Lutz one to right McKinney with plenty of room to fly balls two out three to come in and he hits it on the ground into the shift. Guillaume plays the hop and throws out Rizzo scores first and Arieta there's another ground ball for Lindor one away Dom rips one in a right field in the midst of their first hit of the night and a swing and a miss. So Arieta gets the punch out. So two out of two on and that James McCann McCann hits one toward the middle base hit Smith around third he'll score the first run of the game. Riz Nick's throw is on line kicks away long enough for McCann to go to second James McCann with an RBI single brings home Don Smith with the first run of the game and it's one nothing New York McKinney going from first to third and McCann taking second on an error now Pilar the batter lines toward left center field this one heads for the gap and it lands for a base hit. McKinney scores so does McCann right behind him he comes home to run double for Kevin Pilar and it's a three run fourth inning for the Mets who lead three to nothing. It's a fastball and Peterson's got a strikeout his second of the night the one one swing and a drive in the air to left Smith broke back now when he's there and he makes the one hand catch two men away to come in and gets a ground ball right to Lindoor side retired. The one first Rizzo handles it one up one down and it'll bring up Lindoor in the air left field Bryant good jump nice catch two down two up two down and Don Smith will be the better now the pitch swinging a high fly ball straight away center it's deep or isn't it going back at the track at the wall it's gone home run Don Smith so Smith who has hit Jake Arrieta very hard in the past has broken out of an 0 for 20 slump against Arrieta tonight with a single and now his fifth home run of the year he hits that one to dead central and the Mets have a four to nothing lead the Mets thanks in part to David Peterson who has bounced back beautifully so far through five innings. So it pops one up and we are right there waiting for it with one out and half flies one out to right McKinney coming toward the line track and reaches back to get it more complicated at the end to Billy struck him out for the first time in his career. David Peterson throws six scoreless innings back to back walks issued by Nance and Brandon Drury will come up the pitch hit with two men on lined up the middle base hit the around third being way tall. Nick Strohm will go to third and safe Brandon Drury with an RBI single as a pinch hitter to make it five nothing New York one away seventh inning five nothing Mets Rizzo has grounded out twice and Rizzo drives that one right field that one way back and gone wow into the top deck Anthony Rizzo with his eight and the Cubs are on the board and no doubt from big Riz he's enjoying that trot around the bases that ball was crushed. Wisdom has hit a whole bunch of home runs since joining the big league club. Wisdom cracks one on the air deep left center field back toward the wall this ball's got a chance gone. Cubs go back to back. They're getting back in the game. Patrick Wisdom with his ninth of the year and now it's a five to Mets lead sound the trumpet said when Diaz is coming in five to two. He pitches this at bat struck him out. He struck him out got him on the slider to bend down. So now the Cubs are down to their final out. And here's Anthony Rizzo who broke up the shutout. He struck him out and the ball game is over. Edwin Diaz strikes out the side of the ninth to save it for David Peterson.
