Zac Thornton Set for Subway Series Debut as Mets Play Spoiler

New York Mets rookie left-hander Zac Thornton is scheduled to make his Subway Series debut Saturday against the New York Yankees. Thornton, who carries a 3.53 ERA across 12 starts this season, aims to play spoiler against the AL East contenders after helping sweep Miami last week. The rookie looks to bounce back from his previous outing against the Giants, in which he allowed six earned runs and four home runs over five innings.
