Washington Nationals center fielder Jacob Young made two incredible catches Sunday that sent the New York Mets to a costly defeat. Young actually kicked the ball to rob Brett Baty of extra bases with a juggling grab in the fifth inning, then made a leaping play in the ninth to take away a tying home run from Francisco Alvarez. Washington held on for a 3-2 victory over the Mets, who dropped into a tie with the Cincinnati Reds for the final National League wild card with six games left. Cincinnati holds the head-to-head tiebreaker.
