QUEENS, N.Y. — Adrian Howser wasn't given much leeway during his Mets debut on Thursday afternoon at Citi Field.
The 31-year-old right-hander was sterling through five scoreless innings against the Detroit Tigers in the first game of a doubleheader, allowing just two hits and two walks with three strikeouts.
After being given a 3-0 lead, a lead-off walk to Parker Meadows followed by a single by Spencer Torkelson in the sixth inning ended his day immediately, though, as first-year manager Carlos Mendoza gave him the hook after just 67 pitches.
