Mike Puma NY Post: "Carlos Torres threw a high fastball that Henry Urrutia crushed into the Maryland humidity for an Orioles walk-off homer celebration and 5-4 loss for the Mets at Camden Yards."

ESPN.com: "After Schoop made it 3-3 in the sixth with a two-run homer, Flores put New York up 4-3 in the seventh with a shot off rookie Mychal Givens. Jones connected off Hansel Robles in the bottom half. Mets rookie Noah Syndergaard gave up three runs and eight hits in five-plus innings. He had a 3-1 lead in the sixth before yielding a double to Chris Davis and Schoop's home run. That ruined Syndergaard's bid for his first big league road win. He's 7-1 at home and 0-5 in eight starts on the road."

Nats beat the Rockies to pull to 3.5 games behind the 1st Place Mets.
