Homers come in threes for Mets

It appears the Mets' homer drought has just about come to an end. John Maine fought off some early tough spots to pitch 6 2/3 solid innings, and he was backed by three big homers from Ryan Church, Jose Reyes and Carlos Beltran, as the Mets won their second straight game.

Washington's offense has struggled lately, but it did take an early lead on New York, highlighted by Austin Kearns' first homer. However, Matt Chico was victimized by three homers in five innings, and the Nationals' bats quieted down while the Mets won their second straight.
