NEW YORK Asdrubal Cabrera hit his first home run for Washington and tumbled over a retaining wall to make a terrific catch, leading the Nationals past the New York Mets 3-2 Wednesday night for their 10th straight victory at Citi Field.
Rafael Soriano held on in the ninth inning following Travis d'Arnaud's leadoff homer, getting the final two outs after the Mets put a pair of runners in scoring position.
Matt den Dekker was thrown out at home on pinch-hitter Eric Campbell's grounder to shortstop. Curtis Granderson hit a comebacker on the next pitch, giving Soriano his 27th save in 31 tries.
Bryce Harper and Kevin Frandsen each hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh to make a winner of Jordan Zimmermann (8-5). Drew Storen pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the bottom half, and the NL East leaders overcame three errors to win for the 24th time in their last 28 road games against the Mets dating to 2011. They haven't lost in Queens since June 29 last year.
The winning streak at Citi Field ties a franchise record for the longest at one venue away from home. The Montreal Expos won 10 road games in a row against the Chicago Cubs from 1982-83.
Coming off his 200th career win last Friday, Mets starter Bartolo Colon (11-10) allowed two runs one earned in seven innings.
Leading 1-0, Colon gave up a leadoff double in the seventh to Adam LaRoche. He stopped at third on a single to center by Ian Desmond, who advanced to second when Juan Lagares' high throw ticked off the glove of cutoff man Lucas Duda for an error.
That ended up hurting the Mets. Harper tied it with a sacrifice fly, Ramos singled and Frandsen put the Nationals ahead with another sacrifice fly.
Cabrera connected in the eighth off Jeurys Familia. The two-time All-Star hit nine home runs for Cleveland this season before he was dealt to Washington at the July 31 trade deadline.
In the bottom half, Cabrera bolted from his spot at second base and made a running catch of Granderson's foul pop just before hitting a retaining wall and going head over heels.

NEW YORK (AP) Despite three untimely errors, the Washington Nationals found a way to win at Citi Field. They always do.
Asdrubal Cabrera hit his first home run for Washington and tumbled over a retaining wall to make a terrific catch, leading the Nationals past the New York Mets 3-2 Wednesday night for their 10th straight victory in Queens.
"We're going to have games like this every once in a while. The fact that we were able to overcome it is key," manager Matt Williams said. "We were fortunate tonight."
Rafael Soriano held on in the ninth following Travis d'Arnaud's leadoff homer, getting the final two outs after the Mets put a pair of runners in scoring position.
Matt den Dekker was thrown out at home on pinch-hitter Eric Campbell's grounder to shortstop - and the call was upheld after a replay review to determine whether catcher Wilson Ramos blocked the plate illegally. Curtis Granderson hit a comebacker on the next pitch, giving Soriano his 27th save in 31 tries.
"We've got the best bullpen in the game," starter Jordan Zimmermann said.

Contractors work to build a retaining wall after flooding last year brought down a 100-year-old wall in Brown St, Dunedin. Photo by Peter McIntosh
The June 2013 flooding caused slips around the city and closed dozens of roads across the region, including State Highway 1 to the north.
Dunedin City Council project engineer Evan Matheson said yesterday the council had worked with the Earthquake Commission and private insurers on the slip.
It had also spent significant time doing geotechnical assessments to understand why the wall had failed, so the new wall could be designed appropriately.
Mr Matheson said the previous wall, built about 100 years ago, was not a retaining wall, as such.
As well, old drains behind the wall had become blocked over the decades.
The new wall would be made from pre-cast concrete panels, anchored deep into the ground to make it ''nice and strong''.
The work was ''predominantly a council job'', as it was responsible for the wall, although about half of the cost would be paid by the New Zealand Transport Agency.
A house near the slip was ''quite stable'', Mr Matheson said.
Work began last week and was expected to be finished in October,

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, Akhilesh Yadavs ambitious road project, the Agra-Lucknow access-controlled Greenfield Expressway will be developed in five separate packages. The Government on Wednesday completed the bidding process which has paved the way for the construction of the 301.3 kilometre long expressway which will traverse through Agra, Firozabad, Mainpuri, Etawah, Auraiya, Kannauj, Kanpur Nagar, Hardoi, Unnao and Lucknow districts. The estimated cost of the road project is about Rs. 10,000 crore.
An official spokesman said while PNC Infratech was selected for developing the Agra-Firozabad stretch, or package, of about 55.3 kilometre of the proposed expressway, the stretch from Firozabad to Etawah (62 kilometre) would be developed by Ifcons Infrastructure. The Etawah to Kannauj (57 kilometre) package by Nagarjuna Construction Company, the Kannauj to Unnao (64 kilometre) package by Ifcons Infrastructure and the UnnaoLucknow stretch (63 kilometre) has been awarded to Larsen and Toubro, the spokesman added.

For the first time since Fidel Castros rebel army overthrew the government of Fulgencio Batista in 1959, Cuba will see the construction of a new Catholic church.
In the ambitious project slated to start in the eastern Cuban city of Santiago, 25 tons of scrap metal used to construct the stage for Pope Benedict XVIs 2012 visit to the island will be recycled and used to build the new church.
"Reusing the metal means keeping alive the memory of something good for us Catholics. It gives it new life, so it can serve future generations," Fausto Vlez, the engineer in charge of the project told the BBC.
While the church hopes to start raising the metal beams soon to start construction, it first must raise the money needed to fund the project. So far the church's main backer is Tampa's St. Lawrence parish, which consists mostly of the members who are either descendants of Cuban exiles or exiles themselves.
Though once-atheist Cuba has loosened its law against religion secret baptisms are gone and even some Communist party members worship freely the now secular state still has a dearth of churches. The Catholic Church has only been able to renovate existing structures or rebuild ones that had collapsed.
With only one more building permit pending, Catholics in Santiago are hopeful that their new church will soon herald more construction in the city, badly damaged by Hurricane Sandy in 2012.
Along with leaving 11 people dead, the hurricane destroyed Santiagos wooden church of San Pedrito. The 93-year-old church is now little more than a concrete floor and an outline of its foundation, with whatever surviving remains candlesticks, a wooden lectern and two chipped figurines from the nativity scene stored at an elderly womans house across the street.
The rest [of artifacts] were carried off by thieves," said Marta Prez, who gathers with other parishioners in the Churchs ruins whenever a priest visits the area. "We really need our church back."
While parishioners of the San Pedrito Church hope to have their place of worship rebuilt, not far from there, in a neighborhood built after the revolution, the site of the new church is already lined up. It will take the space of a former parking lot, and according to the architectural drawing, the metal beams from 2102's stage will feature prominently in the new house of worship.
The permit still needs to be issued and $250,000 to finance the project most from parishes abroad like Tampa's St. Lawrence still needs to be raised, but Church officials are optimistic about the future of their new home and about the warming of relations between church and the Cuban state.

Pope Benedict XVI and Cuban President Raul Castro walk outside the Revolution palace at the end of their meeting in Havana on 27 March 2012.
A team of Cuban workers are only one permit away from beginning construction on the communist country's first Catholic church since 1959.
The engineers plan to use scrap metal from a stage built for Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI's 2012 visit in the church's construction.
The head engineer, Fausto Veloz, described the magnitude of using pieces of the historical stage.
"Reusing the metal means keeping alive the memory of something good for us Catholics," he told BBC News. "It gives it new life, so it can serve future generations."
Cuba is officially a secular statethey removed their atheist classification in 1992although an estimated60 per cent of their population is Catholic. No new churches have been sanctioned by the government, and church leaders were only allowed to renovate existing buildings. Other buildings received no renovations, and the country is dotted with former sanctuaries that are now mostly wreckage. Theft from churches is reportedly common.
"We really need our church back," Maria Perez told BBC. Her former church, San Predito, was looted and destroyed. Perez said that former congregants gather in the streets for mass whenever a travelling priest visits.
Cuban Christians without a church home also gather in each other's homes for service, but they look forward to the day they can worship inside a sanctuary.
"The Catholic community is big here but they've never had a church," Veloz said.

Maesbury tin tabernacle church with the memorial to the fallen in the First World War
But Maesburys iconic tin tabernacle church has stood the test of time and is still a much-loved building in the community.
The 108-year-old parish church shows few signs of wear and tear at first glance, and is believed to be one of only two examples of its kind in Shropshire, the other being Knowle Mission Room near Clee Hill in the south of the county.
Assistant churchwarden Maureen Ross said the tiny church is still well used by villagers, with a steady attendance at Sunday services and outreach activities held throughout the year.
It is also popular with visitors, including users of the nearby canal who occasionally pop in to join in with Sunday services.
Weve been opening every day since June and weve had some lovely comments from people saying theyve always wanted to come in, she said.
The interior wood panels are still in lovely condition I understand its the same as it was when it opened.
The churchs exterior is striking, with its small bell house, arched windows and clean white walls making it stand out from the neighbouring houses.
It was built as a result of demand in the village, which at the time had no Anglican building and just a Welsh chapel.
