NEW YORK _ Steven Matz kept his cool and Bryce Harper lost his as the Mets beat the Phillies at Citi Field on Monday night, 5-1, in a game that was delayed 1:35 at the start by rain.
Matz, who didn't record an out and was charged with eight runs (six earned) in his previous start in Philadelphia on Tuesday, allowed one run in six innings on Monday.
Matz's task was helped by the absence of Harper after the fourth inning. The Phillies' $330 million man was ejected by plate umpire Mark Carlson for arguing balls and strikes from the dugout.
