NEW YORK -- The Nationals arguably played their worst game under manager Manny Acta on Saturday afternoon at Citi Field. Lack of pitching and defense were the reasons the team lost to the Mets, 8-2.
The Nationals were in trouble from the start. Right-hander Daniel Cabrera retired the first two batters he faced. Then the problems started. After Carlos Beltran singled and Carlos Delgado walked, David Wright hit what looked like a routine fly ball to center fielder Elijah Dukes. But Dukes, who didn't have his sunglasses on, lost the ball in the sun as it dropped in for a two-base error, which allowed two runs to score. Wright then came in on a single by Ryan Church.
Miscues cost Nats in loss to Mets....
