So despite not giving up a HR, the six batters he put on base somehow all managed to score.

Yes. Hits given up by the pitcher who relieved him drove in the last three runs.

OE: Ding! The light just went on. You were pointing out that runs could be scored without the benefit of home runs- your message all year long. Well played.

I'm all up for him pitching for the Mets on his regular turn

Looks like Sproat is either very good or very bad. It appears to be alternating between good and bad.

The bad outing was when they used him in relief in a "bullpen game". Maybe his head wasn't in that role, as he sees himself as a starter. But if you go back through the thread, you'll see that most of his recent appearances have been lights out.

Gone and will be missed.

See ‘ya, kid.
