Mets fill-in starter Carlos Torres turned in an impressive outing as he picked up his firts win of the season Tuesday night against the Braves.
Torres (1-1) gave up a home run to Andrelton Simmons to open the game but settled back down. The right-hander yielded one run on seven hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings pitched. He also helped his own cause as he smacked an RBI single in a 4-1 win.
Torres has allowed only two runs combined over his last two starts (11 innings). He owns a 0.94 ERA and a 1.01 WHIP through 12 appearances (two starts).
