Game 58: Zim Goes Deep Twice & Castro Comes Through in Extras
About this episode
The Nats prevailed 9-7 in 11 innings over Tampa Bay. Al & Mark open with yet another heavy usage night for the bullpen as Patrick Corbin only made it through five innings. Did you agree with using Daniel Hudson & Brad Hand as much as they pitched? Props need to be given to Tanner Rainey, as he recorded his first career save.
(15:25) The offense had a very productive evening, including three homers hit between Ryan Zimmerman and Juan Soto. What has led to Zimmerman's success at the plate this season? Plus, Al gives rare praise to Starlin Castro's performance with the bat.
(26:20) An update on Stephen Strasburg as more questions remain than answers. Will he pitch again this season?
(29:11) The Nationals open up an 11 game home stand with full capacity allowed. First up? Four games against the Giants, who sport the best record in all of Baseball.
