Andy Pages Is Putting Up .417 and the Dodgers Just Shut Out the Mets in LA

Justin Wrobleski carved up the New York Mets like they owed him money. The Dodgers left-hander threw eight scoreless innings, didn't surrender a hit until the fifth inning, and walked away with a dominant 4-0 victory at Dodger Stadium on Monday. Los Angeles is now rolling through the early season, and if Pages keeps swinging like this, everyone else should be nervous.

Wrobleski Was Untouchable

Wrobleski (2-0) made the Mets look helpless all night. He didn't allow a single hit until Jorge Polanco singled to right with one out in the fifth inning. Over eight innings, the left-hander gave up just two hits total with zero walks and two strikeouts. The Mets managed a pathetic three singles the entire game while their bats stayed completely silent. This is exactly the kind of pitching performance that wins early season games.

Pages Is Leading Baseball in Two Major Categories

Andy Pages crushed a two-out, three-run homer down the left field line in the third inning to put the game away. That's his fifth of the season, and here's what should terrify every team in baseball right now: Pages is leading the major leagues in batting average at .417 and leads all of baseball with 25 hits. He's also tops with 20 RBIs. This guy is not a fluke. He's a legitimate force early on.

Miguel Rojas chipped in three hits for the Dodgers, keeping the offense rolling even when the Mets' David Peterson tried to settle in. Peterson (0-3) gave up four runs on five hits across five innings while issuing four walks and seven strikeouts. He couldn't find his rhythm.

The Mets Are In Free Fall

New York is in serious trouble. The loss extended their losing streak to six games to start a six-game road trip. That's the kind of stretch that gets fans worried in April. Tommy Pham, signed to a minor league deal late in the spring, went 0-for-3 with a strikeout in his first game of the season with the Mets. Nothing is clicking.

Shohei Ohtani went 0-for-4 but extended his on-base streak to 47 games, tying the second-longest in the franchise's Los Angeles history. He was hit in the right shoulder by a 94 mph sinker in the first inning but stayed in the game. Ohtani is slated to pitch on Wednesday.
