WASHINGTON (AP) — Bo Bichette hit a two-run single, David Peterson earned his first victory as a starter this season, and the New York Mets beat the Washington Nationals 2-1 Thursday to earn a four-game series split.
New York avoided its first three-game skid since April 24-26 in winning for the seventh time in 10 games.
Washington slipped to 25-26 and failed to move above .500 this deep into a season for the first time since it was 40-39 on July 1, 2021.
Peterson (3-4) escaped early trouble against the Nationals, who entered the game averaging a MLB-leading 5.58 runs.
