Wizards Get Better of Mets, 5-3
Denard Span made an impact in the 5-3 Washington win over New York. Span, who is a three-time All-Star, went 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times. The winner was Steven Hirschfeld, who threw 96 pitches over 5.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 6 hits. Washington is now 78-53.

With Washington leading 4-3 in the top of the ninth, Span hit a changeup from Jesse Carlson for a solo home run. It was his 6th home run of the season and put the Wizards ahead, 5-3.

"We put it together and came out with the win," Span said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
