NEW YORK—Willie Harris' diving catch in the ninth inning saved Washington, and the slick-fielding Nationals beat the New York Mets 1-0 Thursday behind Jason Bergmann's fantastic pitching performance.
Washington won an unlikely duel between Bergmann and Mike Pelfrey, who carried a no-hit bid into the seventh. Harris' bunt set up Felipe Lopez's sacrifice fly in the eighth, helping the Nationals take three of four at Shea Stadium.
