NY Mets announce lineup vs Washington Nationals for Monday's game
Here's a look at the New York Mets' lineup for Monday's game vs. the Washington Nationals.
WASHINGTON, D. C. ā The mood changed in a blink for the Mets at the end of the Subway Series.
After a disastrous inning put the Mets behind the Yankees by four runs, the home side roared to life in the ninth inning and tied the game behind a Tyrone Taylor three-run home run. Carson Benge capped the comeback with a chopper up the middle in the 10th inning to score Marcus Semien. Instead of dropping the series in dismal fashion, the Mets hit the road riding high on the heels of their fourth series win in their last five.
They will look to extend that good fortune as they open a road trip and their four-game series with the Nationals at 6:45 p. m. at Nationals Park.
The Mets offense has found a little bit of a groove across the last two series, scoring 37 runs in six games, or about 6. 2 runs per game. They will need to keep that going as they face a Nationals team that has scored a Major League-best 255 runs this season, behind the lifts of CJ Abrams and James Wood.
