PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) Ryan Zimmerman, Jayson Werth and Stephen Drew homered as the Washington Nationals beat the New York Mets 12-1 on Wednesday in the final spring training game for both teams.

Zimmerman hit a three-run blast in the top of the first inning off Mets starter Matt Harvey while Werth and Drew each hit two-run homers.

Harvey, who was scratched from Tuesday's start because of a blood clot in his bladder, allowed three runs and two hits in two innings. Noah Syndergaard threw three innings out of the bullpen and gave up two runs - both coming on the Werth home run.
