Lester gets 1st win for Nats, Lindor 5 RBIs as Mets split

WASHINGTON (AP) — Jon Lester pitched shutout ball into the seventh inning to gain his first win for Washington, Kyle Schwarber backed him with four RBIs on a pair of home runs and the Nationals beat the New York Mets 6-2 to split a day-night doubleheader. Francisco Lindor had five RBIs on a pair of two-run homers and run-scoring single for his first big offensive game with the Mets, who won the opener 5-1. Lester, a 37-year-old left-hander, signed a $5 million, one-year contract with the Nationals after helping the Chicago Cubs win the team’s first World Series title in 108 years.
