Losing Trend Continues for New York
In a tight game between the Washington Nationals and the New York Mets, pitcher Kelvin Purcell was terrific on the mound. The Washington right-hander helped his team to the 2-1 win. Purcell yielded 1 run over 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 5 hits, walked 2, and struck out 7. His record improves to 14-4. Josh Stephens sewed up the save, his 36th.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Dave Magallon? The Washington right fielder had a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fourth inning to put the Nationals on top, 2-1. For the game, Magallon had 1 double and 1 single in 2 at-bats.

"It was just a matter of executing," said Washington manager Sundown Nats.

The losing skid has reached 6 games for New York.
