Brian Joura Mets 360: "For the second time in three days, Ryne Stanek – filling in for Edwin Diaz – blew a lead in the ninth inning and picked up the loss, this time surrendering two runs as the Nationals improbably came back from a 7-1 deficit to claim an 8-7 victory Sunday afternoon in D.C."

The Athletic: "For more than six innings, Tylor Megill filled up the strike zone with such consistency that his manager later referred to the outing as dominant. The New York Mets held a comfortable six-run lead when Megill walked off the mound with one out in the seventh inning. And yet, they lost to the Washington Nationals 8-7 on Sunday in epic fashion, reminiscent of blunderous days of yesteryear that the club had done well to avoid during its otherwise strong start to the season." (Subscription required)

Newsday: "As former Mets outfielder Mike Cameron once put it after losing a ball in the sun, 'The sun’s been there for 500, 600 years.'...The giant, fiery, 4.6 billion-year-old orb got in Juan Soto’s eyes on a short fly ball to rightfield in the seventh inning of the Mets-Nationals game on Sunday at Nationals Park. The ball fell in front of Soto as Luis Garcia Jr. hustled into second with a double. No biggie, right, given that the Mets were ahead by six runs at the time? Except the Nationals went on to score five runs in the inning and two more in the bottom of the ninth to shock the Mets, 8-7. The winning run scored on Pete Alonso’s throwing error.

Mets.com: "It started with José Buttó, who relieved Megill with one out in the seventh, then after a strikeout allowed two singles and a three-run homer from Riley Adams that brought Washington within one."

AP SportsUp next - New York RHP Griffin Canning (3-1, 3.12 ERA) faces Washington RHP Trevor Williams (1-2, 5.11) as the four-game series concludes Monday.

Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com: 

Born on this date:

1965
As Houston fans cheer their pregame ascent, Mets announcer Lindsey Nelson and a radio engineer climb into the Astrodome's gondola and are hoisted 208 feet above second base to broadcast the game. The umpiring crew determines that any ball hitting the pair will be in play, since an existing ground rule also calls a ball hitting any part of the dome is also in play.
1995
Showing their displeasure at the recent baseball strike, three fans jump a Shea Stadium fence with one out in the top of the fourth inning, and begin scattering dollar bills at the feet of the Mets' players on the field. As a finale to their defiant act, the trio stands on second base with arms raised, showing the Opening Day crowd T-shirts that are stenciled with the word Greed.





2010
David Wright surpasses Ed Kranepool to become the Mets all-time leader in doubles. The 27 year-old third baseman, who collected his 1,000th career hit yesterday, strokes his 226th two-bagger in the second inning of the Mets' 7-3 victory over L.A. at Citi Field.


1962 - Frank ThomasCharlie Neal and Gil Hodges hit consecutive home runs in the 6th inning to lead the expansion New York Mets to an 8 - 6 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. The victory is a rare occurrence for the Mets - one of only 40 during their inaugural season.

2001Albert Pujols of the St. Louis Cardinals ties the major league record for home runs in April by a rookie with 8, but St. Louis falls to the Mets, 6 - 5, in 11 innings.
