Mets tumble to 17th loss in 20 games, Nationals win 5-4 on Abrams' go-ahead, 2-run homer in 8th
The Washington Nationals defeated the New York Mets 5-4 in a comeback victory fueled by CJ Abrams' two-run homer in the eighth inning, extending the Mets' struggles with their 17th loss in 20 games. New York had taken a 4-3 lead after overcoming an early deficit but failed to hold it, continuing their poor performance despite a high payroll. The loss marks another low point for the Mets, who now face a lengthy road trip after a disappointing homestand.
