Heroes
Bartolo Colon (NYM) .193
Colon's actions last night were the biggest deciding factor in the final outcome. He pitched seven innings, allowing six hits (-30.7%). He didn't walk anyone, and struck out five Marlins (+10.9%). The only run he allowed was Giancarlo Stanton's first inning solo blast (-11.9%). Aside from that, he induced seven groundouts (+15.8%), eight fly outs (+20.9%) and one double play (-4.6%). At the plate, he reached on a fielders' choice in the third (-3.4%) and drove in New York's first run with a bases loaded sacrifice fly with one out in the fifth (+1.2%).
Anthony Recker (NYM) .124
Recker, batting eighth for the Mets, started his night by drawing a one-out walk in the third inning (+3.1%). He was New York's first baserunner of the game. In the fifth, he drew another one-out walk, with runners already at first and second and the score tied at one (+10.0%). He struck out swinging with a two run lead to open the seventh (-0.7%).
Lucas Duda (NYM) .115
Duda struck out swinging for the final out of the first inning (-1.0%) and flew out to center field with one out in the fourth (-1.9%). With nobody out and a runner on first in the sixth, he grounded a single to center (+14.8%). He later scored on Eric Campbell's sacrifice fly. Duda flew out to left for the first out of the eighth inning (-0.4%).

He was caught looking at strike three on his final chance of the evening with one-out and one-on in the seventh (-0.9%).
Brad Hand (MIA) -.219
Hand came on to relieve David Phelps with two out and runners on first and second in the fifth, promptly getting Curtis Granderson to swing at strike three (+5.6%). The sixth inning would see him let the first three runners hit safely (-27.0%), ending with Michael Cuddyer's RBI single which gave New York a lead they wouldn't give up. Hand induced Daniel Murphy to ground out (+0.5%) before getting lifted in favor of Sam Dyson.
