Washington Nationals drop 7-5 series opener to New York Mets in dramatic fashion...

Washington swept their three-game set with the New York Mets last weekend in Citi Field, but Nationals skipper Dusty Baker knew theyd be in for a fight this weekend in D.C. The Mets, expected to be the Nats main competition in the division, lost 9 of 10 over that same stretch, including three-straight to the Nationals in Citi Field last weekend.
