It is all up to Dickey today as the Mets try to salvage this series.  Dickey won his last start against San Diego, giving up three runs in 7.1 innings.  Dickey has pitched well against the Brewers over the last five years, with a 2.65 ERA.

Starting Pitcher: Yovani Gallardo (13-8, 3.55 ERA)

The Mets get a tough draw against Gallardo, who struck out nine Dodgers the last time he took the mound and gave up one run in an eight inning no decision.  However, the Mets touched Gallardo for 10 hits and four runs in June, knocking him out after just four innings.
