2B Daily News – Wednesday, June 22, 2011 WEEKS Continued from page 1B career. It was Bay’s first home run since May 13 at Hous- ton, and the former slugger wasn’t done. He added an RBI triple in the eighth that might have cleared the cen- ter-field fence if not for a leaping Coco Crisp, who knocked the ball back into play. Umpires took a look at the replay but upheld the original call. Normally so poised and polished on the mound, Gee (7-1) was all over the place in a matchup of promising young pitchers. He walked his first two batters, and a single by Crisp loaded the bases. Hideki Matsui hit a sac- rifice fly and Conor Jackson drove in a run with a groundout. Gee walked Weeks and Pennington again in the third, and two more free passes soon followed. Sweeney’s infield single made it 4-0. Trying to become the first Mets rookie to win eight straight decisions, Gee walked six in the first three innings. His previous career high for a game was four.
