Washington has won five of its last six home games in this series. The Nationals swept the three-game series from the Mets in New York last weekend.

The Mets have lost 10 of their last 11 games, including six in a row. This is their worst 11-game span in a single season since they went 1-10 in 11 games, September 8-20, 2012.

The Nationals are coming off a four-game road series against the Rockies in which they scored 46 runs (42 in the last three). That is a franchise record for the most runs ever scored in a four-game series; the previous mark was 41 runs versus the Cubs, July 4-6, 1977.

Bryce Harper is batting .610 (25/41) in night games this season, compared to just .211 (8/38) in day games. That .399 differential is second largest in the majors (BA in night games higher) (minimum 3.1 PA/team G).

Jacob deGrom will be looking to record 10+ strikeouts in a third straight start for the first time in his career after whiffing 13 and 10, respectively, in his last two outings.

After beating the Mets 6-3 on April 23, Max Scherzer is undefeated (13-0) in his last 14 starts against NL East opponents. This is the longest active streak by any starting pitcher versus divisional opponents (streaks exclude any relief appearances).

HP - Barksdale, 1B - Tumpane, 2B - Barrett, 3B - Hernandez

WASHINGTON -- The New York Mets and Washington Nationals have combined to win the last three titles in the National League East.
But there was not much of a pennant race when the Nationals took the crown in 2014 and 2016 or when the Mets prevailed in 2015 on the way to the World Series. The Mets won the division by seven games in 2015 while the Nationals were eight games better than New York last year and 17 games in front of their nearest foe in 2014.

Slumping Mets look to gain ground on surging Nationals

WASHINGTON (AP)  With Bryce Harper coming to the plate with the bases loaded and the Mets clinging to a two-run, ninth-inning lead, New York manager Terry Collins went to the mound and replaced closer Jeurys Familia with left-hander Josh Edgin.
''If we'd have won seven in a row, I probably would have left Jeurys out there, because that's what he's here to do,'' Collins said.
