The New York Mets blanked the Washington Nationals 8–0 on April 28 at Citi Field, with dominant pitching and timely hitting overcoming a modest offensive profile. New York's pitching staff struck out 11 batters while allowing just 3 hits and 2 walks, posting a shutout despite an ERA of 3.87 entering the game. The Mets generated only 6 hits but converted them efficiently, scoring 8 runs with 2 home runs and 7 RBIs to far exceed the Vegas total of 1. Washington managed just 3 hits and 11 strikeouts, failing to score despite drawing 2 walks, as their pitching surrendered 6 hits and 4 earned runs. The Nationals' inability to generate offensive production—posting a .239 batting average with no home runs—proved decisive against a Mets team that executed in key moments. New York's clean defensive performance with no errors complemented the pitching effort, while Washington's 5.21 ERA suggests continued rotation vulnerability heading into the division stretch.
