New York Mets (61-61) at Pittsburgh Pirates (40-82) 7:05 pm
Jon Niese (7-5 3.38) vs James McDonald (2-2 4.26)
TV: WPIX Radio: WFAN
What to watch: The Mets finally found some offense last night but it probably won’t be as easy tonight against McDonald. His last start was a really good one against the Marlins going 7 innings and only giving up 1 run on 3 hits. Niese has had three excellent starts in a row without getting a win. He’s only given up 3 runs in 21 innings over that span. Expect to see Chris Carter back in the cleanup spot tonight after having some success personally and as a team last night.
