 From there, D.J. Hurst settled in, picked up a couple more strikeouts, giving him seven through four innings. Then he had a 1-2-3 fifth inning, recording his eighth strikeout. And in the bottom of the fifth inning, the Nationals added to their lead, courtesy of a Mets miscue. Jacob Young led off with a walk. Two batters later, Lane Thomas hit a ground ball to first that went through Pete Alonzo for an error, and runners ended up first and third. Harold Ramirez then grounded to third. They got the out at second, but Ramirez hustled down the line to first, stayed out of the double play, and the Nationals extended their lead to 2-0.
