NEW YORK – Nelson Figueroa earned his first major league win in five years, retiring 14 straight batters at the start and pitching his hometown New York Mets past the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2 on a foggy Friday night.
Carlos Delgado hit one of New York’s three RBI singles and the Mets got a strong effort from their much-maligned bullpen to win their third consecutive game.
Prince Fielder and J.J. Hardy each had an RBI double for the Brewers, who dropped their third straight after opening the season 6-1.
