It might’ve been six months since Jacob deGrom’s last regular season start, but even with all that time off, some things never change. Without his best stuff, deGrom had few issues mowing down the Nationals left, right, and center. The 2018 Cy Young sat down 10 Nats while only giving up five hits and walking one over six solid innings of work. To close out their 2-0 victory, the Mets sent out what should be their typical closing trio of Seth Lugo, Jeurys Familia, and Edwin Diaz.
Final Score: Mets 2, Nationals 0 — Opening Hooray
