Tylor Megill (0-2, 1.69 ERA) vs. MacKenzie Gore (4-4, 2.91 ERA)

Tylor Megill has shown promise as an impressive pitcher with an ERA of 1.69 and WHIP of 1.00 over 16 innings pitched, including being able to limit hits while maintaining strong strikeout rates and limit hits/home runs while increasing strikeout rate significantly – both qualities could prove key factors in this matchup. Megill could provide his low ERA and strong control could give the Mets an extra edge they desperately require when facing off in high-pressure away games like today.

MacKenzie Gore for the Nationals has had an even season, compiling an even 4-4 record and posting an ERA of 2.91 across 58.1 innings pitched. Gore boasts 72 strikeouts but has given up more hits and homer runs compared to Megill; his experience and capacity to handle pressure will prove crucial as he seeks to take advantage of home field advantage and steer his team toward victory.
