Hasn't thrown the ball as well as he'd like to to begin this season.
Bo Bichette attacks him first pitch.
Flies one deep to right.
Wood back to the fence, and it's out of here.
Bo Bichette homers on the first pitch thrown by Zach Littell, and the Mets jump out to an instant one-nothing lead.
And had, didn't quite get the, "Here comes the vest.
Celebrate one nothing."
One-two coming from Holmes, and he struck him out.
Got him with a sweeper.
But if he's not feeling good, if he's in a funk.
As that one sneaks through for a base hit from MJ, M.J. Melendez.
One-two coming.
Strike.
Bouncing ball to third, and under the glove of Vivas and down the line.
Melendez is in, Vientos scores, Baty goes to third, Marcus Semien winds up at second, and the Mets have a three-nothing lead.
Yeah, here's a swing from Marcus.
He grounds it to Vivas, like Gary said.
Vivas goes at it with one hand.
I would've preferred to see him go with it with two.
And there's a Oh, that's- A line into left center field by Benge for a base hit, and that'll bring in two more.
Baty and Semien come in to score.
The Mets have put four runs on the board after the error, and it's five to nothing New York.
And Mauricio Banks one up the middle- First to third for a base hit.
Benge will go first to third, and the Mets continue pounding.
It's first and third and one out.
And Benge drove in a pair.
Now Bichette drives one to deep right.
Back goes Wood to the warning track to make the catch.
Tagging at third is Benge.
He'll come in to score the fifth run of the inning.
Bichette with his second RBI of the night on the sacrifice fly, and it's six to nothing New York.
Again, the two-two.
And Soto drives this one to deep left center field.
Back near the wall, goes Lyle, and it's out of here.
Juan Soto goes the other way for a two-run homer.
Second of the year for Soto, and the Mets have a seven-run inning.
Eight to nothing New York.
And here you can see Juan with two strikes, gets one out over the plate, and just drives it, hammers this ball.
Stays hit to left center field into the party deck.
And like- He back swings the ball to left center- Yeah better than anybody I've ever seen.
It stays so true that way, and he's so strong to that part of the ballpark that he doesn't have to try to pull it to get his reward.
He can, again, here it is.
Looked like a jab, just a sinker that ran away from him.
He knows he's got it, and that'll finish off Zach Littell's night.
One-two from Kimbrel.
He struck him out.
Craig Kimbrel strikes out the side in the ninth, and the Mets have themselves a dominating victory.
Clay Holmes goes six scoreless for the win.
The Mets with a seven-run third, their biggest inning of the year, and the Mets win for just the third time in the last 18 games as they defeat the Nats eight-nothing
