The Mets scored in three consecutive innings as they cruised to a 5-1 win over the Nats in a game shortened to 7½ innings by the rain.
Alex Clemmey got the start and struck out six over three innings. He allowed one run on a home run and three hits total while issuing a walk.
Alas, that would be enough to charge Clemmey with the loss, though a dishonorable mention goes to Jackson Kent, who coughed up four runs on five hits and two walks over an inning and a 1/3rd. He struck out one.
Brenner Cox and Phillip Glasser both reached base three times on two hits and a walk, with Glasser connecting for Washington’s only extra-base hit. Seaver King singled twice and Armando Cruz singled once to round out the hit column of seven.
T.J. White broke up the shutout with a sac fly in the last of the 7th. Cox, Glasser, King, Elijah Green, and Randal Diaz each stole a base, which, along with five walks, helped create 13 RISP opportunities. An 0-for-13 mark led to ten men left on base.
