MLB · 2026 Season · Odds via DraftKings

This game has ended. The New York Mets defeated the Washington Nationals, 4-1. You can find the full box score and recap above.

Heading into this MLB matchup, DraftKings lists the New York Mets as the favorite at NYM -114, with the Washington Nationals sitting as the underdog on the moneyline. The point spread currently sits at -1.5, and the over/under total for the game is set at 8.5, giving an early read on how competitive, and how high-scoring, oddsmakers expect this game to be.

These two teams already know each other well this season. NYM win series 3-0, across 3 meetings so far. Head-to-head trends like this are often factored into betting lines and predictive models alike, since some matchups simply play out differently than a team's overall record would suggest.

That betting line lines up with what the standings show. The Washington Nationals currently carry a .463 win percentage on the season, compared to .448 for the New York Mets. Whether that gap on paper translates to the scoreboard is a different question entirely, standings measure a whole season, while a single game can turn on one swing, one drive, or one bad quarter.

Betting lines, like win probabilities, are a snapshot, not a forecast set in stone, and they can shift right up until the Final start time as injury news, weather, and public money move the market. This page will keep reflecting the latest numbers as they update, so it's worth a final check before Washington Nationals and New York Mets actually take the field.
