The Washington Nationals defeated the New York Mets 9–6 on May 19 at Nationals Park, a result that exceeded the Vegas total line of 2 runs. The Nationals' offense generated just 9 hits but made them count with 2 home runs and 6 RBIs while striking out 6 times; their pitching staff struck out 9 Mets batters and issued no walks across the contest. New York countered with 10 hits and 3 homers of their own, also driving in 6 runs, but their .658 OPS lagged the Nationals' .740, and they could not convert their offensive opportunities into a victory. Washington's pitching allowed 6 earned runs with a 5.06 ERA, while the Mets' pitchers kept the deficit manageable with a 3.82 ERA despite the loss. The Nationals' clean defense—zero errors—proved decisive in a game where both teams struggled with strikeout rates above 6. This win positions Washington to build momentum in the division as the Mets look to stabilize their lineup consistency.
