New York Pins 7-1 Loss on Nationals
New York Mets starter Luis Antonio González was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Washington Nationals, 7-1. Juan Pérez, credited with the save, is now 3 for 5 in save opportunities. The Mets sport a record of 59-96.

New York used the timely hitting of Kenny Hernandez to capture the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Mets on top, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"No time for flexing," said Hernandez. "It's always one game at a time."
