Nolan McLean pitched very well in a losing effort against the Phillies on Thursday night, allowing only one run on seven hits over six strong frames.

The right-hander also issued three walks in the ballgame while striking out five. The lone tally against him came on an RBI infield single off the bat of Bryce Harper in the fifth inning. Unfortunately for McLean, that was enough to do him in as the Mets couldn’t scratch out a single run of support for him. He got just four whiffs on 82 pitches on the evening, posting a CSW of 26 percent. He’ll look to finish the season strong as he carries a terrific 3.18 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and a 189/69 K/BB ratio (172 2/3 innings) into Thursday’s battle against the Rangers in Arlington.
