Turner and Strasburg send Nationals to win over Mets

NEW YORK » The way things look right now, Stephen Strasburg and the Washington Nationals are simply too much for the New York Mets to handle.

Trea Turner hit a leadoff homer and the Nationals backed Strasburg with three long balls Saturday, beating the Mets 7-4 to stay undefeated at Citi Field this season.

Adam Lind added a two-run shot and Jose Lobaton also went deep for the division leaders, who can finish a four-game sweep Sunday afternoon. Washington is 6-0 in Queens this year — part of an impressive 24-12 mark on the road.

“I think it just shows the makeup of this team that we’re very capable of winning on any given day, even when we’re not firing on all cylinders,” Strasburg said.

Yoenis Cespedes homered and had four hits for third-place New York, which dropped 111/2 games out of first.

“We’ve got 90 left. We’re going to show up all 90 of them and we’ll keep playing,” Mets manager Terry Collins said. “You can’t tuck your tail between your legs and run and hide.
