The rain washed away the slop, and a game to forget became a game to remember.
The Mets had clawed back following the rain delay in the sixth. Canha uncorked a three-run home run in the seventh to knot a game that had seemed lost in the first inning.
The 26-year-old Fisher, who weathered the fifth, sixth and seventh innings, was the most important pitcher on the night and far better than Butto, whom the Mets were forced to summon for a spot start that went south quickly. The organization’s No. 15 prospect was tagged for four runs in his first major league inning, the biggest blow a three-run shot from Alec Bohm.
Butto surrendered three more runs — off a second three-run homer from Bohm, who finished with a career-high six RBIs — in the fourth inning, concluding a debut in which he allowed seven runs on nine hits and two walks in four innings.Until Bohm’s second dinger — off an outside fastball that the righty hitter smacked down the right-field line — Butto had settled in, and the Mets had fought their way back for a first time.
After 96 minor league games, Butto likely could not wait for his major league debut. After the first inning, you couldn’t blame him if he couldn’t wait for it to be over. The first five Phillies reached, which included Bohm’s first blast. Butto needed 21 pitches to record his first out — a strikeout of Bryson Stott — and the Mets already trailed 3-0 by that point. Nick Maton’s single added a fourth Phillies run, and it took 38 pitches for the righty to escape his first major league inning.Share this article:
