 Trying to finish the series on a good note, even with losing the first two games, but mm-mm-mm. Here's Tyrone Taylor, who has struck out all three trips to the plate today. And the first pitch hit of the year to shallow right. Thomas moving in. He's there, and he makes the catch. And the inning comes to a close. Two runs for the Mets on a total of four hits. They leave two men aboard, and after eight, New York seven, Washington nothing on the Penfitt Nationals baseball network.
