Nieves Tames Mets
Arizona Diamondbacks starter Juan Nieves really did a number on the New York Mets today, shutting them out 4-0 on 5 hits in a complete game victory. He issued 1 walk and had 7 strikeouts.

"We didn't have good at-bats," New York manager Michael Kritikos. "I don't make excuses, but when we were playing the game, our energy didn't show. That comes from either extremely good pitching or extremely lousy hitting and seeing as our team has a bunch of good hitters, I have to tip my cap to Nieves."

This season Nieves has compiled a 7-5 record with a 3.85 ERA.
