Brandon Nimmo’s three-run homer in the second inning set the tone as the Nats fell to the Mets, 7-5.
The Mets' Brandon Nimmo celebrates his three-run homer in the second inning Tuesday in New York. NEW YORK — One of Dave Martinez’s pet peeves is when a pitcher records the first two outs of an inning but then walks the third batter.
When Quintana exited, the Nationals , who have lost three in a row, found some life at the plate. A García double greeted reliever Adam Ottavino in the eighth, and pinch hitter Ildemaro Vargas slugged his first home run of the season. In the ninth against Reed Garrett, Juan Yepez doubled before Keibert Ruiz added a long two-run shot of his own to make it 7-4.
