Mets appealing Matt Harvey's second run

CBSSports.com Fantasy — The Mets have appealed to the league office to have one of the earned runs charged to Matt Harvey Friday changed to an unearned run. Harvey allowed one run on an infield single and then shortstop Ruben Tejada had a throwing error, after which another run came around to score. The Mets contend that the second run should be unearned, as a result of the error. "I didn't think it was an earned run," Mets manager Terry Collins told MLB.com Saturday . If the ruling is reversed, Harvey would be charged with just one run in 7 1/3 innings, lowering his ERA to the season from 1.55 to 1.41.  ...

Harvey uses bat to improve to 5-0 as Mets win second straight

New York Post — CHICAGO — It was a no-brainer. The Mets allow Ike Davis to take at-bats every day, so what could be the harm in letting Matt Harvey hit in the seventh inning yesterday with two outs and the go-ahead run at second base? “That was awesome,” Harvey said after his RBI single...

Starlin Castro racking up multi-hit games

CBSSports.com Fantasy — No matter how you look at it, Cubs shortstop Starlin Castro's two-hit game Friday was another impressive showing from the young star. On the one hand, Castro, who went 2 for 4 with a run scored, has multiple hits in five out of the last 10 games, as it's becoming old hat for him. On the other, both hits came off Mets starter Matt Harvey, who had allowed just two players to get multiple hits off him so far this season. The Cubs went on to lose 3-2, as Castro was the only batter with more than one hit. Castro has upped his batting average from .277 to .287 over the last 10 games, while batting ....

Matt Harvey lifts himself in win

CBSSports.com Fantasy — After receiving just six runs of support in his previous three starts, Mets starting pitcher Matt Harvey had to take matters into his own hands Friday against the Cubs. Along with pitching 7 1/3 strong innings, Harvey also singled in the game-winning run in the top of the 7th, in a 3-2 win. Harvey held the Cubs to just two earned runs in 7 1/3 innings, and even his two runs could easily been unearned, as they came to score on an infield single and throwing error in the first inning. He held the Cubs to just five hits overall and walked no batters, while striking out six. Harvey improved his re...

Edwin Jackson loses despite best start

CBSSports.com Fantasy — Cubs starting pitcher Edwin Jackson was sharper than he has been all season Friday against the Mets, but it was still not enough to earn his second win as the Cubs fell, 3-2. Jackson allowed a pair of solo home runs in the first and fourth inning, but that was all of the damage until the seventh, when he was chased with two outs after opposing starter Matt Harvey drove a single to left field to break a 2-2 tie. Jackson would earn the loss in the game as a result. Jackson allowed three earned runs on seven hits and a walk, while striking out four batters. Despite throwing just his third quality...

Cubs shut down by Mets ace Matt Harvey

Chicago Sun-Times — Edwin Jackson is a long-term investment for the Cubs, who signed the veteran right-hander to a four-year, $54 million contract in the offseason. The return on that investment is coming slowly, despite another loss Friday to the New York Mets and their shining ace, Matt Harvey. ‘‘He threw a great ballgame,’’ manager Dale Sveum said of Jackson, who fell to 1-6 with the 3-2 loss at Wrigley Field. ‘‘He threw strikes and did a good job. That’s pretty much two well-pitched games in a row.’’ Jackson won the last one, an 8-2 d...

Mets Blog | ESPN New York — Charles Rex Arbogast/Associated Press Darwin Barney is out at the plate on an eighth-inning throw from Marlon Byrd, preserving Matt Harvey's 3-2 win. CHICAGO -- Matt Harvey could not recall another big hit in his baseball career, much less one with Friday’s magnitude. “I don’t know. I don’t remember,” Harvey said. “I got a few in high school.
