Ollie Perez shines in start against Orioles


With his start completed Oliver Perez quieted naysayers with what had transpired up to this point with the WBC and his first start back against the tigers.

Perez pitched 6 and 2/3 innings tonight and gave up only 1 run on a couple of hits . He still has some work to do with his arm strength since he topped out at 91mph and was mostly around 89-90 mph. Perez still had some issues finding the plate at times tonight but kept his walks down.

Perez pitched 95 pitches and then was relieved by J J Putz. Perez will pitch saturday against the Red Sox.

The Mets are winning 2-1 . The Mets scored there run by a home run by Daniel Murphy and a triple by Tatis who scored on a throwing error.
