Game 22: Another Schwarber Walk-Off After a Scoreless Lester Debut
About this episode
The Nationals beat the Marlins 2-1 in extras as Kyle Schwarber hit a lead-off 2 run HR in the 10th (Yes, you read that last part correctly). Al & Mark react to the victory which prior to extra innings saw yet another anemic game for the Washington offense. Why was Ryan Zimmerman not given at least one at bat in this game?
(12:42) Victor Robles was caught stealing again and the Nats difficulties on the bases continue. Does the team simply need to stop attempted steals unless it's Trea Turner?
(15:33) Jon Lester threw five scoreless frames in his franchise debut. The hosts give their thoughts on what they saw from the veteran southpaw on Friday night. While breaking down the pitching, they dare ask... is the bullpen good? (23:36)
(27:06) Patrick Corbin gets the nod Saturday despite his terrible start to the season. Is his place in the rotation on the line? Plus, Mark updates the injury situations for both Juan Soto & Stephen Strasburg.
