NEW YORK -- After letting a big chance to tighten the NL East race slip away, New York Mets manager Terry Collins was looking forward to taking a break. Anfernee Simons Jersey .Taking a break from facing Daniel Murphy was bound to help, too.Murphy kept answering the Citi Field boos with booms, hitting his seventh home run this year against the team that let him go last winter and leading the Washington Nationals over the Mets 3-2 Sunday.The Mets won the opener of the four-game set, then dropped three in a row to fall six games behind the Nats going into the All-Star Game. Not even two home runs from leadoff man Jose Reyes was enough in the series finale.Were still in the race. The state of the team is were banged up, Collins said.Weve been in this situation one year ago where things looked bleak. We end up playing in the World Series, he said. So were upbeat, were going to take the rest and get ready for the second half.Murphy tops the majors with a .348 batting average at the All-Star break, boosted by the damage hes done to the Mets. He homered three times and drove in 10 runs in this series.I dont think its just against us. Hes hitting like .350, losing pitcher Steven Matz said.I dont have any answer, he said.Murphy lined a two-run drive off the facing off the upper deck in the first inning. Overall, he is 22 for 52 (.423) with 21 RBI vs. his old club.If theres any consolation for Collins, hell soon have Murphy back on his side, albeit for just a day -- Collins is guiding the NL team in the All-Star Game on Tuesday night in San Diego, and Murphy is on the squad.The Nationals posted their 54th win, matching the 1994 Montreal Expos for the most in franchise history before the break.Reyes homered in his first two at-bats. His next time up, he took three wild swings and struck out.Gio Gonzalez (5-8) pitched into the sixth as the Nats beat the Mets for the ninth time in 13 matchups this year.Tanner Roark made his first relief appearance of the season, replacing Gonzalez and retiring seven straight batters. He went seven innings last Wednesday for a win.Jonathan Papelbon pitched the ninth for his 19th save in 21 chances.Matz (7-5) fell to 0-4 in his last eight starts. He gave up an RBI single to All-Star Wilson Ramos in the third that put Washington ahead 3-1, and left after the seventh.It took Murphy less than two months to go from valued ex-player to villain at his former home. Murphy drew two standing ovations and got a video tribute when he returned for the first time in mid-May.The longtime second baseman whose playoff slugging helped the Mets reach the World Series last year got jeered every time he came to the plate on this afternoon. He managed to make at least one new fan, however -- after chasing down a popup that landed in foul territory, he pointed to a young person in the stands and tossed the souvenir that way.TRAINERS ROOMMets: OF Yoenis Cespedes (strained right quadriceps) hasnt started since getting hurt Friday night. Collins said it was unlikely the slugger wouldve been able to pinch-hit. ... OF Alejandro De Aza twice knocked himself down with foul balls in the fourth. He got checked and stayed in.RAISING REYESReyes hit his 22nd career leadoff home run, including 17 with the Mets that tied teammate Curtis Granderson for most in team history. Reyes liner to left in the third gave him his eighth career multihomer game and first since 2011.Its always a surprise for me when I hit a homer because I dont hit too many, he said.UP NEXTNationals: Open a nine-game homestand next Friday, starting with Pittsburgh. The Dodgers and Padres later visit Washington.Mets: Start a three-game series at Philadelphia on Friday. RHP Noah Syndergaard, who left his last start with arm fatigue, will pitch at the back end of the rotation coming out of the break, Collins said.

WWE Survivor Series preview Goldberg versus Brock Lesnar on a stacked card The UndertakerThe Phenom made his WWE debut at Survivor Series and following his victory at the event last year, when he teamed up with Kane to beat Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper, The Undertaker has now won 13 of his 18 matches at WWEs annual pay-per-view, including all four of the traditional elimination bouts he wrestled in.In fact, the Phenom has only been pinned once, by Kurt Angle, in tag matches at the event, with count-outs causing his other two dismissals. His best performance? Eliminating three men, including Triple H and Jerry Lawler, in 1995 as The Darkside obliterated The Royals. The Undertaker The Ultimate WarriorWhen it came to eliminating The Ultimate Warrior in Survivor Series matches, it just could not be done - the legend surviving all four of his bouts.Warrior was a sole survivor in 1988 and 1989 - his double axe handle and Gorilla Press Splash too hot for his rivals to handle - before another stellar performance in 1990.Warrior was a sole survivor in the nights opener, before he and Hulk Hogan were left standing in the main event, having conquered Ted DiBiase, Rick Martel, The Warlord, Hercules and Paul Roma in a three-on-five handicap match - Tito Santana their fallen partner. The Ultimate Warrior Rey MysterioThe Undertaker would bring size to the team and Warrior the vibrancy, but a good little man never goes amiss, with Mysterio a prime candidate for the role.The Master of the 619 belied his diminutive stature to record eight eliminations at Survivor Series, dispatching, amongs others, the gargantuan Big Show (2005), Kane and The Miz (2008) and Seth Rollins (2013).Mysterio made it to the end of an elimination match unscathed three times - in 2008, 2010 and 2012 - and regularly did the grunt work for his team. For his speed and stamina, the masked marvel is in. Rey Mysterio Roman ReignsRaw will be hoping Reigns can channel his 2013 Survivor Series performance when the red brand battles Smackdown in Toronto on Sunday night. Jusuf Nurkic Jersey. The Big Dog dispatched four of his opponents three years ago to emerge as a sole survivor, with his cousin Jimmy Uso as well as Cody Rhodes, Goldust and, finally, Mysterio the men to fall - all after being blasted by spears.Seth Rollins was the only other member of Reigns team, which also included Dean Ambrose, Cesaro and Jack Swagger to record an elimination, The Architect banishing Jey Uso after administering a Curb Stomp. Roman Reigns Randy OrtonOrton was a sole survivor on his first Survivor Series appearance in 2003 and went on to match that feat in 2004 and 2005, eliminating Rob Van Dam, Edge, Triple H and Shawn Michaels (twice) along the way.The Viper has since taken his number of Survivor Series eliminations to a record 13, with three his highest tally in one match - the 12-time world champion accounting for Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger and Hunico in 2011.Having also retained the world title three times at Survivor Series, including against Michaels in 2007 and Wade Barrett in 2010, the St Louis native is a must.Now over to you - who would make YOUR ultimate Survivor Series team?
