Mets destroy Nationals with huge nine-run inning to maintain position in NL wild-card race
NY Post
The schedule says the Mets have 10 more regular season games left.
According to Brandon Nimmo, that’s not the case.
“I’m pretty much convinced now we’re not in the regular season anymore,” Nimmo said after the Mets completed a three-game sweep of the Nationals with a 10-0 win on Wednesday. “We’re in playoff baseball. Every win is extremely important. It decides if we keep playing or not.”
The Mets used a nine-run fourth inning to put this one away, sparked by a two-run single by Mark Vientos and capped by Nimmo’s three-run homer.
