Mets beat Nationals 2-1 on Marte’s single in 10th inning

Starling Marte lined a game-ending single in the 10th inning that lifted the New York Mets to a critical 2-1 win over the Washington Nationals on Monday night. New York moved a game ahead of rival Atlanta for the final National League wild card when the Braves were blown out 9-0 at home by the Los Angeles Dodgers. "Cool," pitcher Sean Manaea said with a grin.
