The inning that tested Mets’ Nolan McLean and his answer that brought Citi Field to its feet
The first pitch was a ball. The second, Rodríguez lined toward McLean, who fielded the ball on one hop behind his back, and then had the presence of mind to throw to second for a chance at a double-play.
Nolan McLean opened eyes with 5.1 scoreless innings in his major league debut, and Francisco Lindor stayed hot at the dish as the Mets beat the Mariners, 3-1 As good as his stuff was, McLean also started a spectacular 1-4-3 double play in the third inning, adding another moment to a storybook debut
The Mets could use some big-time help, so who better to call upon than a guy occasionally called Cowboy Ohtani?
