Mets blank Brewers 4-0; Thornton earns first win

Zac Thornton earned his first major-league win by going six scoreless innings to lead the New York Mets to a 4-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, with Jared Young and Luis Robert Jr. homering to snap Milwaukee’s four-game win streak and boost Thornton’s 18-inning scoreless streak. The win came as Thornton faced his former team, while Milwaukee’s Brandon Sproat was the tough-luck loser in the rematch, and the Mets extended their series lead to 1-1 against the Brewers.
