The Nationals dropped two of three to the Cubs at home despite scoring no fewer than five runs in any of the three games. Washington allowed 31 hits in the series, its second most in any three-game set this season, trailing only the 32 it allowed in its season-opening matchup with the Mets.

The Mets were swept in Miami in their most recent series, and have lost five in a row overall. The Marlins entered the series against the Mets with a 10-31 (.244) record, the fifth-lowest record entering an eventual sweep since 1900 (min. 40 games into season, min. three games in series).

The Nationals have gone 5-4 against the Mets this season, and took two of three on their first visit to Citi Field. Washington has gone 9-2 against NL East teams this season when scoring at least five runs compared to 1-8 in such games when scoring fewer than five.

Anthony Rendon has posted a 1.265 OPS versus the Mets this season while Victor Robles has a 1.193 mark. This ranks Rendon and Robles fourth and fifth, respectively, among NL hitters for highest OPS versus a single opponent this season (min. 35 PA).

Pete Alonso has hit 14 home runs in his first 45 games as a Met, tying him with Richard Hidalgo for the third most in franchise history. Alonso trails only Yoenis Cespedes (17) and Carlos Delgado (15).

Patrick Corbin has struck out 69 batters in his first nine starts as a National. Max Scherzer holds the franchise record with 85 strikeouts in his first 10 starts with the Nationals, and Corbin additionally trails only Gio Gonzalez (79), Stephen Strabsurg (79), Mark Langston (79) and Pedro Martinez (70).

HP - Blakney, 1B - Dreckman, 2B - Emmel, 3B - Estabrook

The Washington Nationals headed to the Big Apple early Monday morning with a chance to deliver the final knockout blow to the New York Mets and embattled manager Mickey Callaway. Two Mets wins later, the Nationals are the punch-drunk team that looks as if it could topple over with a slight nudge.
Fortunately for the Nationals, Max Scherzer is on the mound Wednesday night. Unfortunately for Washington, so too will Jacob deGrom.

''It was a normal day when it started,'' Davis said after a memorable 6-1 win over the Washington Nationals.
