Thursday afternoon's contest between the Mets and the Washington Nationals is one that Tomas won't soon forget. The catcher had a career day at the plate, slugging two home runs, including his first career grand slam, in the 8-2 victory. Nido drove in six of those eight Mets runs, also a career-best mark for the 26-year-old catcher. "To be honest, hard work pays off," said Nido. "I'm very happy to be able to get that 'W.'"
