| The Mets get a walkoff win to salvage the final game of their 4 game series with the Nats and regain sole possession of 1st place in the NL East in the process. The Nationals got 2 runs in the 2nd on a Brian Schneider home run and it looked like enough, as starter Billy Traber went 7 strong innings giving up just one run. Instead, the normally dominant Jon Rauch gave up a run in the 8th on a walk, stolen base, and a double from David Wright. Then Luis Ayala entered in the 9th and it all went south - Moises Alou single, error by Austin Kearns on a Damion Easley fly ball, and a Raul Castro single pushes across the winning run. |
