How to Watch Mets at Nationals: Stream MLB Live, TV Channel

The Washington Nationals host the New York Mets for the first time this season in what we can expect to be a pitcher’s duel on Friday.

The New York Mets look to stay one of the hottest teams in the majors winning their eighth win in a row when they travel to take on the Washington Nationals on Friday night. This is the first game of the first series between these two NL East rivals this season. The Mets are leading the division with a 18-7 record but are a more pedestrian 6-6 on the road. The Nats are seven games back in the division behind the Mets but have a good opportunity to make some ground up at home today. The Nationals are coming off a series win against their regional rivals in the Baltimore Orioles. Still, the Mets will be the -175 favorites even on the road tonight.

The Mets are coming off the right end of a series sweep against the Philadelphia Phillies. New York won 4-3 on Wednesday in 11 innings to complete the sweep. Juan Soto threw out Nick Castellanos at home plate to prevent the go-ahead run from scoring. After the Phillies scored a run in the top of the 10th, Starling Marte hit a two-run single to walk-off the game to hand the Phillies their fourth loss in a row. Now the Mets are up five games on Philadelphia in the division. The Mets have a great chance of keeping this winning streak rolling by starting Kodai Senga tonight. The righty is 3-1 with a 0.79 ERA after giving up no runs in 5.2 innings while only giving up three hits against the St. Louis Cardinals in his last start.

The Nationals narrowly missed grabbing a sweep of their own losing to the Orioles on Thursday 2-1. Cade Povich was very sharp for Baltimore going 6.2 innings only giving up one run on four hits against the Nationals. MacKenzie Gore pitched very well against the Orioles as well going six innings while only giving up four hits and two runs while striking out eight. Jake Irvin hopes to replicate that performance getting the start tonight to try and help Washington bounce back. He is 2-0 with a 3.68 ERA going 6.1 innings in his last start while only giving up two runs on three hits against the Colorado Rockies.
