COTA WINS ONE FOR THE DBACKS
Cota hit a huge 3 run shot in the bottom of the fourth to put away the Mets in game one 6-2. It was a typical Cota on the mound even with the wind blowing out to right center field. Cota gave up an early solo shot to Yo but that was the end of it. He was stronger on the mound as the game went on (or did the Mets just get more intoxicated) striking out 5 of the last 6 batters he faced to end the game. The D Back's were given 3 runs in the bottom of the 2nd (along with a couple extra outs) as the Mets once again put on a fielding clinic, in front of a not so packed house. Cota's 3 run shot in the bottom of the 4th was icing on the cake as they rolled to an easy game 1 win
