Washington at N.Y. Mets 7:10 ET
Nationals over Mets- Yesterday the Mets paid 'us' dividends as they pounded out 15 hits and scored nine runs against Washington first time rookie starter Lucas Giolito. The Nationals have now lost eight of their last nine on the road but led the season series against the Mets 6-3. Undefeated Steven Strasburg (11-0, 2.71 ERA) is 6-3 lifetime against the Mets and Washington has won 14 of his 15 starts. Hard throwing Noah Syndergaard (9-3, 2.41) is pitching with a bone spur in his elbow and was tagged for five runs in three innings his last time out against the Nationals and might have problems again. Take the NATIONALS!
