Result:
LOSS

In game two of this doubleheader the Mets hand the ball to Mike Pelfrey for his first MLB start. Florida counters with Ricky Nolasco who has been solid with a 3.97 ERA and winning record. Over his last eight starts he's alternated wins and losses. Coming off a shelling at the hands of Washington, he's due for a good performance here. The Marlins are an awesome 9-3 this season as a road dog of +125 to +150. The Mets don't hit well at home (.251 average) and score just 4.7 per game. Florida scores 5.0 per game on the road and over their past seven games, they've put up 6.4 per game. I like the underdog here vs. the untested pitcher.
