  Indians 9, Mets 1

Matt Ginter didn’t have a great start on Wednesday, but he didn’t get much help from his offense, his defense, his bullpen or the umpring crew. On a night that featured three Mets errors and enough questionable umpiring to get Art Howe thrown out of the game, Ginter went five and one-third innings, allowing five runs, three earned, on seven hits and one walk while striking out three. Things could have gone a little bit better for him, but even after Howe was ejected, Ginter was relieved in the sixth with two men on by Howe’s boy Mike Stanton, who proceeded to allow both runners to score after a walk and a hit. Things didn’t go much better for Tyler Yates, pitching for the first time since he was recalled. Yates pitched the ninth and gave up four runs on five hits while striking out one.

The Mets’ offense got back to its usual form, managing just six hits and one walk on the night to scratch out that one run. Kazuo Matsui went two for four with a double and scored the only run, though one more might have scored had Mike Cameron’s double not bounced over the wall, forcing Jason Phillips, who had two singles on the night, to stop at third, where he wound up stranded.

The Mets at least got more good news out of the minor leagues. Jose Reyes went one for six with a stolen base in a 10-5 Binghamton win, a game in which Justin Huber homered, going two for two with three walks. And David Wright had another great night for Norfolk, going two for four with a double and his first AAA home run. Victor Diaz also went two for four with a double while Craig Brazell added his sixteenth homer of the season in a 15-3 Norfolk loss.

Tomorrow, Jae Weong Seo (3-5, 4.99) tries to keep hanging on by a thread as he faces the also struggling Scott Elarton (0-6, 9.71).
