The seemingly unstoppable Mets (18-7) will had to our Nation’s capital to face the less-unstoppable Nationals (11-14). The Mets dominated the Nationals last year to the tune of an 11-2 record, with both losses coming in back-to-back games in July in DC. The Mets were 5-2 overall at Nationals Park in 2025.
The Mets kept chugging along over the early part of this week, sweeping the Phillies at home to complete a 7-0 homestand—with the win, the Mets improved to 12-1 at Citi Field this season. Francisco Lindor was the hero of Monday night’s game, blasting two home runs to provide almost all the offense in a 5-4 victory.
