Ryan Zimmerman hit a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning, giving the Washington Nationals a 2-1 victory over the New York Mets on Thursday night.

Pinch-hitter Willie Harris started the decisive rally with one out in the ninth by walking on a full-count pitch from Pedro Feliciano (2-4). Nyjer Morgan pushed a perfect drag bunt between first and the pitcher’s mound to put runners at first and second.

Cristian Guzman singled to left but Jesus Feliciano cut off the sharply hit ball and forced Harris to stop at third, loading the bases. Ryota Igarashi relieved Feliciano.

The Mets brought Jesus Feliciano in as a fifth infielder, stationing him to the shortstop side of second base in a drawn-in infield, and Zimmerman hit a fly to right field for the game-winner.
