Dominating Cubs, Matt Harvey Shows He’s Far From His Limits

Posted Oct 18, 2015
The moment Matt Harvey had been dreaming about all season came in the seventh inning Saturday. The Mets were clinging to a two-run lead, and the Chicago Cubs were threatening, and the Citi Field crowd was on its feet chanting his name. Harvey struck out Tommy La Stella swinging through a changeup and skipped off the mound, pumping his fist and letting out a tribal roar. The crowd erupted. Down the right-field line, Mr. Met gave out high-fives. (New York Times)
