On this night they were out in beautiful San Diego playing Bud Blacks Padres (25-28) in front of 21,893 at Petco Park.

Tonight the Mets offense provided run support & Jacob deGrom provided some fantastic pitching. It was one of deGrom's best outings on the year, it was the first of two times time he would shut out the opponent on just two hits pitching at least seven innings. Less than two weeks earlier he had thrown a one hit shut out in eight innings against the St. Louis Cardinals.
