Nimmo HRs again, but Mets can't best Max

Scherzer gave up one run in six innings and struck out 10, his 15th double-digit strikeout game of the season in 30 starts. He did so in 87 pitches, the second consecutive night the Nationals have limited pitch counts for their starting pitcher after Stephen Strasburg threw just 83 on Saturday night.

deGrom tossed six innings of three-run ball and struck out 11. He also reached 200 innings this season for the first time in his career, making him the first Mets pitcher to reach that plateau since Bartolo Colon did so in 2014.
