Mets Morning News: Mets swept by Nationals, Steven Matz dealing with forearm tightness

One day after getting shellacked by the Nationals, the Mets lost by a much smaller margin in the finale. After making his debut on the mound in the previous game, Jose Reyes hit two home runs in this one, but Reyes giveth and Reyes taketh. Both him and Wilmer Flores combined to make errors that would be the difference in this game.

Noah Syndergaard returned from Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease and pitched well after getting off to a shaky start. The Mets now return home to take on the Braves for a four-game series.
