7/24/24 Mets' Jake Diekman stars as unlikely Subway Series hero with clutch strikeout of Aaron Judge. Entering a crucial ninth inning in Tuesday's Subway Series opener, Mets reliever Jake Diekman owned a 12.27 ERA in July. Due up third in the frame was Aaron Judge, baseball's home run, RBI and OPS leader whom the Mets had pitched around all night. Filling in for closer Edwin Diaz, the left-handed Diekman struck out the righty-swinging Judge on five pitches, finishing off the at-bat with a called third strike on a perfectly placed 96-mph fastball right on the inner edge.

6/03/24 Mets survive another near-collapse in ninth inning to escape with win over Nationals. WASHINGTON — Jake Diekman kept his thoughts to simple math as the bullpen door opened in the ninth inning Monday night with a Mets victory hanging in the balance. The left-hander had blown the save the previous day against the Diamondbacks on Ketel Marte's two-run homer in the ninth inning in a harrowing Mets loss. Diekman had flushed that memory and was now charged with sanitizing Adam Ottavino's mess. “Try to get two outs there before they score two,” Diekman said of his mindset. Diekman got the two outs and Washington scored only once in a nail-biting 8-7 victory for the Mets at Nationals Park. 6 Jake Diekman helped the Mets escape with a win Monday night.
