    Routed but Wood & Abrams are All-Stars

    The Nats were trounced by the Pirates 7-1 on July 4th in Washington D.C. Al & Mark dig into the defeat where the local holiday tradition continued of beginning the game at 11:05AM. (04:30) Cade Cavalli & Miles Mikolas will flip their spots in the rotation as they await for their suspension appeals to be heard.  Cavalli originally was gong to the take the mound on Monday night, but now will pitch in Sunday's rubber match vs. Pittsburgh. (10:00) James Wood hit another lead-off homer; his 23rd of the season. Wood reached the third deck and will get a future red seat in honor of the feat.  Wood's OPS is at .931 and that is the 3rd highest in all of the National League. (15:00) Why did Andres Chaparro pinch-hit for Luis Garcia Jr. w/ runners on the corner in the bottom of the 7th?  The Nats trailed 5-1 at the time and Chaparro ultimately struck out swinging. (20:10) Carson Palmquist flopped as the team's Opener on Saturday. Palmquist was charged with four runs as Zack Littell inherited a major mess in the top of the 2nd. (27:00) Riley Cornelio gave up a pair of runs in two innings of work.  Cornelio has really struggled when pitching for Washington as his WHIP is up to 2.21 after five appearances. (30:00) It was revealed on Saturday night that both James Wood & CJ Abrams will head to Philadelphia for this month's All-Star Game. Each of them have previously reached the Midsummer classic and Wood was noncommittal when asked about returning to the Home Run Derby. (35:30) Will Foster Griffin be a late addition to the NL roster as other pitchers drop out? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Garcia Jr. & Lile Each Homer Twice in Win

    The Nats launched their own fireworks in Friday night's 9-5 win over visiting Pittsburgh.  Mark & Al discuss the Nationals five homer effort in the victory that puts the team at three games above .500 entering July 4th. (05:30) Luis Garcia Jr. homered twice to continue his torrid summer. Garcia is now up to 18 homers this season and he has hit 13 of them within the past month. (10:30) Daylen Lile also went deep twice on Friday evening.  Lile has now lifted his OPS to .730 on the season. (12:30) Jose Tena lived up to the role as the DH in the 3rd spot in the order.  Tena crushed a 430 foot homer to put the Nationals up 4-1 in the bottom of the 3rd. (19:00) Foster Griffin earned his 9th victory of the season after lasting five innings. Griffin only allowed one run and his ERA is down to 2.87. (24:30) Zak Kent tossed a scoreless top of the 8th, but then he gave up four runs on five Pirates doubles in the top of the 9th.  Kent stayed in for the final out, but Riley Cornelio was forced to warm up in the bullpen as the game got tight. (27:00) Reaction to the suspensions handed out to Cade Cavalli & Miles Mikolas this week after the benches clearing incident in Boston on Tuesday evening. (47:00) The Nats & Orioles this week finally made a trade with another for the first time ever. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Nats Homer Thrice in Fenway Rout

    The Nats took the series in Boston with a 10-2 thrashing of the Red Sox on Wednesday afternoon. Mark (From Fenway Park) & Al dig into the victory that puts Washington at two games over .500 entering the upcoming homestand. (05:30) The offense scored double digits despite CJ Abrams getting the day off.  Washington jumped out early on Boston starter Payton Tolle, who ended up being charged with six runs allowed. (07:00) James Wood homered for the 22nd time to make it 10-0 in the top of the 7th. Wood broke out of his slump this series by hitting two homers, driving in six runs, and gathering 13 total bases. (10:00) The Nats two other homers came from unlikely hitters as Andres Chaparro & Nasim Nuñez each went deep for the first time this season.  Chapparro's blast came in the 1st and it was well timed as there has been increased scrutiny into his playing time. (16:30) Brad Lord served as Andrew Alvarez's Opener and it worked out just fine.  Lord pitched into the 3rd and then Alvarez took the baton through the 7th.  Alvarez inherited a jam in the 3rd but immediately induced an inning ending double play. (23:30) Paul Toboni & Cade Cavalli each spoke to reporters at length prior to Wednesday's game. This was following the incident on Tuesday night involving Cavalli & Willson Contreras. (36:00) Josh Whetzel, the Voice of the Rochester Red Wings, gives an update from AAA.  Hear about Yo Yo Morales, Harry Ford, Brady House, and more.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Cavalli Dominates but Empties the Benches

    The Nats beat the Red Sox 8-1 on Tuesday night in a game that will be best be remembered for a bench clearing brawl.  Mark (From Fenway Park) & Al hold an extended discussion about what happened in the bottom of the 4th in Boston. Cade Cavalli struck out Willson Contreras and then after some verbal exchanges, both teams ran onto the field.  Contreras was ejected, but not Cavalli. (05:30) Cavalli was every bit the Ace in the win as he struck out 13 Red Sox hitters and lasted seven innings. He will enter July with a 3.69 ERA. (08:00) Parsing through the kerfuffle and what led to it on Tuesday night. (20:30) Miles Mikolas was the only National ejected during the skirmish even though he never played in this game.  Mikolas in the past was teammates with Contreras in St. Louis. (25:00) James Wood had a trio of hits and knocked in a pair of runs. Wood's OPS currently sits at .898. The offense broke the game wide open with seven runs in the late innings. (28:00) Luis Garcia Jr. drove in a staggering 27 runs in June. Garcia Jr. was recently recognized as the NL Player of the week for his stretch of six homers in six games. (30:00) Andres Chaparro was 0 for 2 and his average is just .156.  Why has he been hitting 2nd in the order at times? (35:20) Mitchell Parker is out for the year after spraining his UCL and he will likely need surgery.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
