Nationals 7, Mets 1

WASHINGTON Lannan (3-5) allowed an unearned run and four hits, facing the minimum number of batters through the first seven innings. He was helped out by a franchise-record-tying five double plays - two 6-4-3s, two 4-6-3s and a head-shaking 9-3-6 that took a while to sort out.

Adam Dunn, Elijah Dukes and Nick Johnson homered for the Nationals, who had lost three straight and nine of 10. Dunn is the only player in the majors with more home runs (17) than his team has victories (15).
