Peterson (6-4) went 6 2⁄3 innings and gave up two runs, five hits and three walks with four strikeouts. It was his first win since June 11, a shutout of the Nationals. Ryne Stanek and Edwin Diaz got the last seven outs, with Diaz collecting his 18th save.

As the Mets starting rotation continues to lose arms due to injury, David Peterson gave the team exactly what they needed in Thursday's win against the Brewers.

Quintana, meanwhile, continued to perform in a manner that was likely familiar to many Mets fans: he didn’t demonstrate dominating stuff, but he managed to put up for several innings following the Nimmo homer.
