Bullpen Struggles in Loss to the Dodgers
Listen now
Description
The Nats lost 4-1 to the Dodgers on Tuesday night in D.C. Al & Mark open with the multiple costly base running miscues that Washington committed, especially the instance that came in the bottom of the 9th. Did third base coach Ricky Gutierrez throw up the "stop sign" too late for Luis Garcia Jr.? (09:00) Lane Thomas injured his leg on a stolen base attempt in the bottom of the 5th. He initially stayed in the game and a few innings he was removed. Thomas will get a MRI on Wednesday morning....... could this lead to James Wood getting called up to fill the likely vacant roster spot? (18:30) The bullpen allowed all four runs in just four innings of work. Five more arms took the mound out of the 'pen in this game, in what seems to be the norm for the team this season. Hunter Harvey ceded a pair of runs and was tagged with the loss. (25:20) Patrick Corbin tossed a scoreless outing in 5.1 and only allowed three hits. (30:00) Mark gives an update on both Keibert Ruiz and Josiah Gray. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
