  • Mets Record: 46-36
  • Key Moment In The Game: In my opinion the key moment was the first 4 innings of the game. The Mets offense took care of business early by scoring in each of the first 4 innings. By the time the Nationals came to bat in the bottom of the 4th inning they were down 8-0 which was too much for them to overcome.

      Mets didn't get their 46th win until gm 97 last year, have to be happy with that 15 gm improvement

        Happy yes, but it could also be better. I heard Gary and Ron talk yesterday about how the Mets have lost 10 games this year via the walk-off. That's too much in my opinion. Cut that number in 1/2 and the Mets would have 51 wins and the best record in the NL.
