NEW YORK — Michael Kopech got the best of Jose Quintana on “flashback to the rebuild day” for the White Sox at Citi Field.
It was a close call, but Kopech pitched 52⁄3 innings of one-run ball, bouncing back nicely from a disastrous start in Atlanta when he failed to finish the first inning on the first day after the All-Star break. Quintana was good, too, allowing two runs on six hits with no walks over five innings in his first start as a Met, his Gotham debut delayed by a left rib fracture.
