Slumping Mets Break Out at the Plate in 8-0 Win over Nationals

Juan Soto and Bo Bichette sparked New York’s biggest inning of the season, and Clay Holmes plus two relievers held Washington to three hits.

  • On Tuesday, the New York Mets defeated the Washington Nationals 8-0, with Juan Soto and Bo Bichette homering during New York's biggest inning of the year in the fourth.
  • Struggling with a 10-19 record, the Mets won for only the third time in 18 games, providing relief for manager Carlos Mendoza amid recent offensive struggles.
  • Soto is dealing with left forearm tightness, though an MRI returned clean results; he has been the designated hitter since returning from a 15-game calf strain.
  • Bichette launched a leadoff homer against Zack Littell and added a sacrifice fly, while Clay Holmes combined with two relievers on a three-hitter to secure the shutout.
  • This performance at Citi Field contrasts sharply with the Mets' recent offensive collapse, when they totaled just four runs during a three-game sweep by the Rockies last weekend.
