Familia (3-3) allowed one earned run on three hits and a walk in an inning of work Sunday against the Diamondbacks, but he still picked up the win after the Mets rallied for four runs in the top of the ninth.
Familia entered the game in the eighth inning with the Mets down by one and allowed three straight hits to surrender the earned run. It was his first appearance since returning from the disabled list due to a shoulder injury, so there is no reason to panic over his stumble in this outing. Still, with Robert Gsellman pitching well, the team may not rush Familia back into the closer role right away. The Mets have also said throughout the early part of this season that they could use him in pre-ninth-inning work when opposing lineups offer a tough set of hitters due up.
