Matsuzaka allowed five runs on six hits, walking one and striking out four over five innings of a 6-1 loss to Detroit on Friday night.
There would be mixed reviews on Dice-K's Mets debut. He allowed five runs over five innings, including a pair of home runs, but he was facing one of baseball's most potent offenses, the most damaging home run was a three-run shot that came off the bat of arguably the game's most prolific hitter - Miguel Cabrera - he walked just one hitter, and he retired the last 10 batters he faced. All-in-all, not a bad first outing, and it should certainly get him another start as the Mets try to reduce the workloads of their top tier young arms.
