  • Cease No-Hits the Nats

    Cease No-Hits the Nats
    Jul 25 2024
    The Nats were on the wrong side of Dylan Cease's No-Hitter on Thursday afternoon as they were swept and shutout by the Padres 3-0. Al & Tim wonder if this season's offense is the worst one in franchise history. They have not scored a run in 12 out of their 56 losses this year. (11:00) James Wood did not have a good game as he misplayed a ball in the 1st inning that led to all three San Diego runs, committed a throwing error in the 2nd, and struck out three times. Should Wood continue to play LF instead of RF? (14:30) A brief rain delay began just nine minutes after the game began. Patrick Corbin returned after the delay to last seven innings and the hosts wonder if there is any chance he could be traded by next week. Milwaukee Brewers a willing trade partner? (26:00) MacKenzie Gore will start Friday night in St. Louis. This is an important outing for the lefty as he has struggled recently. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Padres Clobber Parker + Gray Has Tommy John Surgery

    Padres Clobber Parker + Gray Has Tommy John Surgery
    Jul 25 2024
    The Nats remain win-less in five meetings with the Padres this season as they were crushed 12-3 on Wednesday evening in Navy Yard. Mark & Al recap Mitchell Parker's rough start as he allowed six runs in only three innings of work. Parker has had three bad outings this month and last earned a win over a month ago. (12:00) Jordan Weems allowed five runs in the top of the 4th; when the game became a laugher. Weems is having a bad season and the hosts wonder what his future is with the team. The contest was so out of reach that Ildemaro Vargas pitched in the 9th, but he did make a fantastic catch on a hard hit comebacker. (20:00) Juan Yepez hit a 2-run HR to briefly Washington a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the 1st. Yepez has safely had a hit in all 15 games since being called up from AAA. (23:30) James Wood went 0 for 4 but yet again had the top exit velocities in the game. Wood is hitting balls hard, but the results do not bear that out. (29:00) After the game it was revealed that Josiah Gray had Tommy John Surgery and also an Internal Brace Procedure due to his partially torn UCL. Gray likely won't return to the mound until the final portion of the 2025 season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Shutout by San Diego

    Shutout by San Diego
    Jul 24 2024
    The Nats were blanked 4-0 by the visiting Padres on Tuesday night to end their three game win streak. Mark & Al marvel at how the Nationals have somehow already been shutout 11 times this season. The offense only mustered five hits and did not draw any walks in the loss. (07:00) Jacob Young attempted a bunt early in the game with Trey Lipscomb on 2nd base. The hosts air their grievances over this decision, which is not a rarity for Davey Martinez. Lipscomb doubled in the game, but it was only his fourth extra-base hit of the season. (11:00) The only member of the lineup with multiple hits was Juan Yepez. He has gotten a hit in all 14 games he's played in the majors since being called up from AAA. (18:30) DJ Herz returned to the rotation and had a solid outing in defeat. He did not allow a run until the 5th, but then gave up Back-to-back HRs. (26:00) Five bullpen arms were used after the team had Monday off. Derek Law and Jacob Barnes each allowed a run in their appearances. If Kyle Finnegan gets traded next week, will Robert Garcia take over as the closer? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
