RODGER’S QUICK TAKE

Even when Ian Anderson didn’t have his best stuff, he found a way to beat the Mets on Wednesday at Citi Field. The Shen grad didn’t have the command he normally does and had too many walks, but his defense was stellar and Atlanta pushed across seven runs in the 6th inning and that was the difference. To his credit, he was able to grind through innings, and that’s what really good pitchers do. Anderson will win a lot more games this season, but some wins will look better than others.
