Mets defeat Marlins 3-0

MIAMI (AP) — Steven Matz pitched six innings for his first win since May, and New York took the rubber game of a series against Miami.

Matz (8-6) allowed four hits, walked two and struck out six. Pitching despite a bone spur in his elbow, he had been 0-5 in his past nine starts with an ERA of 4.73.

The Mets won two of three games in the series and returned home trailing second-place Miami by half a game in the NL East.

Miami drew consolation from an encouraging start by Jose Urena (1-2), who allowed only one run in six innings.
