Tylor Megill's 'attacking' mentality fuels stellar start against Phillies
Briefly

Tylor Megill of the Mets exhibited significant improvement during a recent game against the Phillies, winning 5-4 at Citi Field. This season, Megill has demonstrated increased confidence, particularly with his newly developed sinker. In his best start so far, he allowed only one hit and four walks over 5 ¹/₃ innings, achieving ten strikeouts. His strategy focused on keeping the ball in the strike zone, which proved effective against a disciplined Phillies lineup. This performance resulted in a lowered ERA of 1.09, showcasing his growth as a pitcher under coach Carlos Mendoza's guidance.
I just feel like now he knows that when he's in the strike zone, stuff plays,
That's what we want to see. Attacking Castellanos - it's not a secret, he's a really good hitter - and it was good to see him going right after [it]. That's what you want to see. Challenge guys. Attack them.
Regardless of the pitch, just kind of trying to attack-in-zone kind of deal, said Megill.
Megill's performance dropped his ERA to 1.09 and he trails Ryne Stanek and Kodai Senga for the Mets.
