Mets lose to Nationals by three touchdowns and a field goal worth of runs

The Mets have had higher nights. After 5 innings in opposition to the Nationals in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday evening, the Mets are trailing 19-0. Yep, 19-0. It’s the sixth time this season a staff has scored at the very least 19 runs in a sport and we’re simply previous the midway level.

Here’s how the runs scored:

  • 1st inning
  • 2nd inning
    • Daniel Murphy two-run house run (9-0)
    • Matt Wieters RBI single (10-0)
  • third inning
    • Daniel Murphy three-run house run (13-0)
  • 4th inning
    • Bryce Harper RBI double (14-0)
    • Ryan Zimmerman two-run house run (16-0)
  • fifth inning
    • Anthony Rendon three-run double (19-0)

The Mets pitchers on the hook:

The Nationals are on tempo to attain 30 runs. That has occurred precisely as soon as in baseball historical past, when the Rangers beat the Orioles 30-Three on August 22, 2007. Wes Littleton famously obtained the save in that sport, pitching three scoreless innings.

Update (10:21 PM ET): Jose Reyes got here in to pitch the underside of the eighth and issues devolved from there. Matt Adams hit a two-run house run, Mark Reynolds hit a three-run house run, and Wilmer Difo hit an RBI triple to carry the rating to 25-1. The Nationals’ 25 runs are probably the most a staff has scored since that 30-Three sport.

The Mets stormed for 3 runs within the prime of the ninth, however the sport was finalized as a 25-Four loss.
