Mets' Matt Harvey on staying in Game 5: 'I wanted it bad'

Posted Nov 2, 2015
The New York Mets completed eight innings on Sunday night in precisely the fashion they hoped they would. A pair of runs against an excellent Edinson Volquez gave the team a 2-0 lead. Matt Harvey, asked to pitch the team back to Kansas City, struck out nine over eight scoreless innings. The impressive Jeurys Familia stood ready in the bullpen. All that remained was for the door to swing open. (USA Today)
