Nationals ace Max Scherzer plays catch with young Mets fan in stands

Nationals ace Max Scherzer plays catch with young Mets fan in stands
We found Max Scherzer's newest fan! Before the Nationals game against the Mets at Citi Field on Wednesday, a young Mets fan was watching batting practice in the outfield seats when he saw Scherzer in the outfield. Little did he know that the Nats ace was up for a game of catch! Watch the awesome video below. No word on whether the Mets jersey has been traded out for a Scherzer shirsey. Be sure to like MASN Nationals on Facebook for more videos, giveaways, news and more!

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Mets in Viera

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Mets in Viera
VIERA, Fla. - There will be far more at stake when the Nationals and Mets for the first time in the regular season in May (and each time through September, perhaps beyond), but any time these two rivals get together on the diamond, it's worth a little extra attention. After the way things played out last year, this has become by far the best current rivalry in the National League East. After a 6-2 victory over the Rays in Port Charlotte yesterday, the Nationals get to host New York in their...

Nationals, Mets look like the pitching leaders in NL East race

Nationals, Mets look like the pitching leaders in NL East race
As Nationals pitchers and catchers settle in for their final spring training in Viera, Fla., some familiar faces will be elsewhere. Jordan Zimmermann, who came up in 2008 and had a 3.32 ERA in 117 starts, signed with Detroit. Reliever Craig Stammen, a National since 2009, is with Cleveland and Drew Storen, who saved 95 games after joining the team in 2010, was traded to Toronto. So after missing the playoffs in 2015, the Nationals takes aim at knocking off the New York Mets and their collection...

Meet the Mets, who are playing in their first World Series since 2000

Meet the Mets, who are playing in their first World Series since 2000
The Mets are heading to the World Series, a big accomplishment considering they were two games over .500 in the National League East on July 30. But, they reinvented their roster and finished 31-11 to buzz by the favored Nationals to win the division without drama. The Mets continued to knock off favorites in the postseason. They beat Zack Greinke, Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers in the NL Division Series and swept the red-hot Cubs in the NL Championship Series. The Mets have been off since...

Playoffs game blog: Kansas City and the New York Mets need one win to advance
In search of their first World Series title since 1985, the Kansas City Royals are now one win away from a return to the Fall Classic. They take a 3-1 lead into Game 5 today of the American League Championship Series at Toronto's Rogers Centre. Kansas City has been bashing the baseball and posted a 14-2 win yesterday over Toronto. The top three in their order - Alcides Escobar, Ben Zobrist and Lorenzo Cain - went a combined 6-for-11 with a homer, four runs and nine RBIs. K.C. went 8-for-11...

Previewing the NLCS between the Cubs and Mets

Previewing the NLCS between the Cubs and Mets
The Mets and the Cubs are playing in the National League Championship Series, and if the Cubs win, they'll put an end to a longtime drought of not appearing in the World Series. The Cubs haven't won a World Series since back-to-back titles in 1907 and 1908 and haven't been to a World Series since 1945, the year they lost to Detroit. The Cubs haven't ever won an NLCS. They are 0-3 when playing for the NL pennant. They lost to the Marlins in 2003, the Giants in 1989 and the Padres in...

Nats game blog: Nationals look to Strasburg to prevent sweep vs. Mets

Nats game blog: Nationals look to Strasburg to prevent sweep vs. Mets
The Nationals look for Stephen Strasburg to do two very important things in his start tonight against the Mets. They need the right-hander to keep the score down and go at least six innings to help a wounded bullpen. The 'pen allowed six runs on six walks and three hits in the seventh inning Tuesday. The Mets were able to erase a 7-1 lead. You know the rest of the story. The Mets counter with right-hander Jacob deGrom (12-7, 2.40 ERA). He has won four of his last five decisions and beat the...

Harvey, Mets squabbling about innings limit with critical series vs. Nats on horizon
This is the sign of the times, pitching-wise across baseball: The Mets and the Nationals are battling for a division title and the big news is how much time Mets ace Matt Harvey has spent on the telephone talking to his elbow surgeon, Dr. James Andrews. The Mets are in Washington for a three-game series beginning Monday. Harvey, 26, the ace of the Mets staff, pitches Tuesday night, but how much will he pitch the rest of the season, and will he be available if the Mets make the...

Tyler Clippard reflects on being traded as Mets make postseason push

Tyler Clippard reflects on being traded as Mets make postseason push
Mets relief pitcher Tyler Clippard remembers the first thought that ran through his mind July 27 when he was told that he had been traded from Oakland to New York. "My first thought was, 'OK, I'll have to figure out how to get all my stuff moved,'" Clippard said. "I was thinking, 'What time do I have to be there?' 'When should I go?'" His second thought was baseball. He knew he was going to be in a battle for the National League East with his former team, the Nationals, a team that...

Mets have concerns of their own as they try to hold on to division lead

Mets have concerns of their own as they try to hold on to division lead
The Nationals are struggling to end a six-game losing streak, and while they are 10-20 since the All-Star break, all is not lost. Not when you consider that the Mets, who have a 4 1/2 game lead in the National League East, have their own questions, likely more serious than those in Washington. The Mets got a reprieve. They were swept at home over the weekend by Pittsburgh, but given the Giants' sweep of the Nationals in San Francisco, they didn't lose any ground. The Mets have 44 games left...

Will Mets' moves help close gap in tight NL East race?

Will Mets' moves help close gap in tight NL East race?
The debate at the start of the season in the National League East focused on one question: Which team - the Mets or the Marlins - would be the biggest challenger to the Nationals in the division? The Marlins had a strong case, but they wilted under expectations, and it is the Mets who have the best chance of making it a race. In the last five days, the Mets have added four players. They went into Tuesday night two games behind the Nationals. The two teams have nine games left, including six in...

Williams on Turner, Barrett and Zimmerman

Williams on Turner, Barrett and Zimmerman
Shortstop Trea Turner made his Triple-A debut Friday night in a Syracuse 9-1 loss at Indianapolis. He was called out on strikes, lined softly to right fielder, grounded into a force out at second base, scored on a Kevin Keyes single, grounded into another force out and got to third later in the inning. He finished 0-for-4 with a run scored. Not a big deal, he went 0-for-4 to start his first of 10 days at Harrisburg. The next game he had three base hits. Amazingly, he had 25 multi-hit games in...

One-run wins are good, but can offense help out some more?

One-run wins are good, but can offense help out some more?
The Nationals hung on for a pair of thrilling 1-0 wins over the Mets over the weekend to win the four-game series in New York. The pitching was incredible, allowing the Mets only 11 hits over the last two games. But the Nationals left 21 men on base and scored only two runs in those final two wins at Citi Field. In Sunday's series finale, the Nationals had several chances to score more than one run. They left the bases loaded in the sixth inning. Two men were left on in the first, fourth,...
