Summary
Zach Thornton just proved he belongs in the majors with a gritty, seven-strikeout performance against the Phillies, giving up just one earned run in six innings—his second start since being called up. Coming off a rough first outing, Thornton bounced back with poise, helped by stellar defense, and left the Mets’ beleaguered pitching staff with a much-needed spark. Interim manager Andy Green praised his intensity, and Thornton’s big-league mindset is clear—he’s here to stay and pitch for years to come.
