Max Scherzer allowed just one hit over five shutout innings while striking out six. He was pulled from the game because of a high pitch count. John Curtiss, Drew Smith, David Robertson, and Adam Ottavino recorded scoreless outings out of the bullpen.
The Mets will try to win the series on Tuesday with David Peterson taking the ball. The first pitch is scheduled for 7:10 p.m.
