The Mets lost a clunker to the Nationals 7-1. Max Scherzer was good for five innings, but left the game early due to “feeling fatigued on his left side.” Eduardo Escobar homered to even the game at one run apiece, where it remained until the eighth inning when Lane Thomas hit a home run off Adam Ottavino. The Nationals then piled on against Adonis Medina in the ninth, sealing the fate of this ugly contest.
