César Hernández hit his first homer in more than a year Sunday, delivering the exclamation point in the Nationals' 7-1 win over the Mets. LGM
Luis García had an RBI single in the first inning, then the Nationals scored four unearned runs against Carlos Carrasco in the third after second baseman Jeff McNeil's error led to two-run singles by Keibert Ruiz and Ildemaro Vargas.
Hernández, who had a career-high 21 homers last season, ended his drought by hitting a no-doubt, two-run shot into the right field seats in the fifth. The drive was his first since Aug. 26, 2021, a span of 155 games. Entering Sunday, only the Los Angeles Angels' Magneuris Sierra and the Cleveland Guardians' Myles Straw had gone longer without homering among active players.
