WASHINGTON — They tried their best to make Terrible Tuesday a memory.
It’s all about living in the moment as the clock continues to tick away. The real agony will come if the Mets fall just short of the postseason. They will have no one to blame but themselves. Until they are eliminated, however, they vow they will not quit.
The Mets’ bullpen did not blow a six-run lead for the second straight game as they beat the Nationals 8-4 Wednesday at Nationals Park. The good news is that the Mets took four of six against the Phillies and Nationals on this road trip.
