In a tight tilt between the Washington Nationals and the New York Mets, Kirk Griffith was the deciding factor. The Washington right-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. In 7 innings, Griffith surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 12 and walking 0. He allowed 2 runs. With the win, Washington has a record of 83-73. New York falls to 56-99.

Oscar Hernandez, who led the NL in doubles with 48 in 2020, chipped in a run-scoring hit-by-pitch for Washington in the top of the first. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 3 runs batted in.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Washington manager Mark Grudzielanek.
