Final
Phillies, Mets face off in day-night doubleheader
Jun 29, 2007 - 1:34 PM NY Mets (43-33) at Philadelphia (41-37) 1:35 pm EDTPHILADELPHIA (Ticker) -- National League East Division rivals take the field on Friday in a day-night doubleheader as the New York Mets visit the Philadelphia Phillies.
Orlando Hernandez (3-3, 2.77 ERA) gets the ball for the Mets in the first game, which is a makeup of an April 16 rainout.
Hernandez is winless in his last four starts for New York, which has won five of six games after losing 14 of its first 18 games in June. The Cuban righthander pitched brilliantly his last time out, holding Oakland to six hits over seven shutout innings.
Hernandez will be opposed by J.D. Durbin (0-0, 94.50), who is making his first start since 2004.
Durbin, who was recalled from Class AA Reading on Thursday, last appeared in relief against Colorado on April 4 as a member of the Arizona Diamondbacks and yielded seven runs and seven hits in two-thirds of an inning.
The Mets had their series finale against St. Louis rained out on Thursday, while the Phillies, who have won five of eight, beat Cincinnati, 8-7, in 10 innings.
