Mark Canha hit a two-run homer and a two-RBI single, both off Aaron Nola, who now has a 4.70 ERA. The New York Mets beat the Phillies 4-1.
NEW YORK — Aaron Nola plodded from the mound to the dugout after completing the sixth inning Wednesday night, his latest start ending as it began: with a harmless infield fly.Nola allowed a two-run homer in the third inning and a costly two-out, two-strike hit in the fourth — both to Mets outfielder Mark Canha. And because the Phillies’ offense continues to fire blanks, Nola’s mistakes proved lethal in a flat 4-1 loss at Citi Field.
“These guys are going to hit,” manager Rob Thomson said before the game. “It says so on the back of their baseball card. They’re going to hit.” “Not getting ahead of guys hurt me tonight,” Nola said. “Home runs with guys on base have hurt me all year so far. Just getting behind guys, walking guys. I mean, that’s the main thing. Not getting the first-pitch strike over and too many walks.”It’s uncharacteristic for Nola. Last season, he had a 3.6% walk rate en route to a fourth-place finish in the Cy Young Award voting. Through 12 starts, his walk rate is 6%.“I don’t know, to tell you the truth,” Thomson said. “I don’t know.
