| The Mets win by a run in a game that saw both teams rally in the 8th. The Mets had a 3-1 lead off two home runs, a 2nd inning 2-run blast from Jason Bay and a 4th inning solo shot from Ronny Cedeno. The Nats lone run came on an Ian Desmond solo homer in the 3rd. In the 8th, Danny Espinosa doubled and Jayson Werth walked, then pinch hitter Roger Bernadina hit a pinch-hit, hit and run, 2 out double to score both runners and tie the game. The Mets also got a double and a walk in the bottom of the inning, and with 2 out Jason Bay walked to load the bases. I went to Sean Burnett out of the bullpen to face lefty Justin Thole, but the Mets countered with righty Scott Hairston, who ripped a single to score the go-ahead run. The Nats got a runner to 2nd in the 9th, but closer Frank Francisco struck out both Desmond and Espinosa to end the game. |
