Steven Matz de Mets had a historically bad exit

Just three days after Jason Vargas left after scoring four runs in the third, Mets pitcher Steven Matz beat his team-mate against the Phillies on Tuesday with an even worse performance. At a zero exit, he faced eight batters, allowed eight points and recorded zero draws.

The trouble began when a throw-off error helped Andrew McCutchen get to the front row, and Jean Segura's double took the runners to second and third places. With these ducks on the pond, Matz hit Bryce Harper with a lead of 150 km / h to load the bases. J.T. Realmuto then hit a double on a score of 0-2 to bring two runners back home. Scott Kingery then hit a Three point dinger for the deserved fourth round of the team this season, while Vargas was at least kind enough to get his team out first.

But Matz is not finished yet. For some reason, the director of Mets, Mickey Callaway, felt that his pitcher still had a chance to redeem himself. The thrower used this confidence to walk with Cesar Hernandez and allow Aaron Altherr to arrive on a base due to a focus error. It was not until Maikel Franco smoked a 83 km / h shift in the stratosphere for a three-run circuit that Callaway finally ended on his left.

Matz went to the dugout with a standing ovation from the Philadelphia crowd. As if a line of statistics of four hits, eight earned runs (six earned), one lap and two homers was not serious enough, his ERA also jumped 1.65, good for fifth place in baseball, 4.96. Oh, and he made his way in the history books.

He also joined some guys with his feat.

The good news for Matz is that he is not as bad as at least one of the throwers on this list. Paul Wilson, for example, earned the eight points he gave up in his terrible outing in 2005 and would have more than two starts – he gave 20 hits and 11 points on both games – before leaving the league completely. . So, things could always be worse.
