The Mets were going with right-hander Dillon Gee, but when Gee was placed on the disabled list with a right lat strain, the club instead opted to hand the ball to right-hander Jacob deGrom. The same can be said for the Yankees, as this would have been C.C. Sabathia's start, but he just headed to the DL as well.
"It seems to be all across the board in Major League Baseball," Yankees manager Joe Girardi told MLB.com. "You're seeing it a lot right now, where teams are scrambling because of injuries. It's unusual, but it just seems to be the state that the game's in right now, with all the injuries to pitchers."
deGrom was 4-0 with a 2.58 ERA for Triple-A Las Vegas.
"I was surprised when they called me," deGrom told MLB.com. "I didn't know if it would come as a reliever or a starter, which one it would be. I was thinking it would be a little later, but I'm really glad it happened now."
The Mets have never had their starting pitcher make their Major League debut in consecutive games, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. The last time in the Majors that both pitchers were making their Major League debut was on Sept. 7, 2010, when the Mets' Gee faced the Nationals' Yunesky Maya, according to MLB.com.
"I don't care who you are and how highly touted you are, that first time you walk on a Major League field, there's a lot of emotions and a lot of adrenaline," Girardi said. "The first inning is usually your biggest worry with a guy like that."
If the Mets win, they win the Subway Series 3-1, or if the Yanks win, it ends as a 2-2 series.
