NEW YORK — Jose Quintana extended his scoreless streak to a career-high 22 2/3 innings and Brandon Nimmo's three-run homer capped a nine-run fourth as the surging New York Mets beat the Washington Nationals 10-0 on Wednesday night to finish a three-game sweep.

In a franchise first, the Mets scored double-digit runs for a third straight game, with Mark Vientos, Pete Alonso, Brandon Nimmo and Francisco Alvarez all hitting home runs in a 10-6 win over the Phillies.

After four games without their biggest offensive driver, the Mets are producing more than enough runs to win in his absence. The bats have absolutely exploded at Citi Field this week, with the Mets having scored 10 runs in three consecutive nights for the first time in franchise history.
