Washington parlayed a decent outing from starter Drew Smyly into a solid win over the New York Mets. The final score was 4-2. Washington has 4 straight wins, New York 3 straight losses.

Mike Ford came through with a big-time hit for Washington. The pinch hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Feels good to get the job done," Smyly said after the game.
