About this episode
The Nats are now two games above .500 after Tuesday night's 6-3 win over the Giants. Mark (From San Francisco) & Al begin with a rarity on this podcast; a wildcard standings update. Washington is now in a 3-way tie for the final wildcard spot; something that was unfathomable a few months ago.
(7:15) Luis Garcia Jr. hit a 2-run HR to continue the team's recent pattern of scoring in the 1st inning. It was the 3rd time on this road trip that the Nationals went up 2-0 right away.
(12:00) Wood bolstered his MVP campaign by gathering three hits, scoring two runs, stealing a base, and knocking in a run. Wood singled in the top of the 1st before Garcia Jr. brought him with a homer.
(20:00) Andrew Alvarez escaped jams all night in his four innings of scoreless work. Brad Lord took over for Alvarez and pitched into the 7th without giving up a run. Lord's ERA is now down to 2.30.
(24:30) Nationals go for the sweep on Wednesday afternoon with Foster Griffin on the mound.
