The New York Mets beat the Washington Nationals 5-4 on Saturday after rallying late and finishing with a walk-off hit by Francisco Lindor. Multiple outlets describe a two-run ninth inning that turns the game around, with Lindor driving in the winning run as the Mets celebrate immediately after the final play.
The reports frame the win as part of a broader recent stretch for New York. One account notes that following the MLB trade deadline, when the Mets traded multiple players, the team’s results improve, winning eight of 11 games. The coverage focuses primarily on the dramatic finish—especially the ninth-inning comeback and Lindor’s role—while differing in emphasis between the walk-off celebration and the context of the Mets’ post-deadline surge.
