About this episode
The Nats beat the Marlins 4-1 for the second consecutive day and they have now beaten Miami in ten out of twelve meetings this season. Mark & Al recap the 67th win of the year; and Washington needs to go at least 5-9 down the stretch to exceed last season's win total of 71.
(06:00) Keibert Ruiz has another good game this month as he had a RBI single, double, and a stolen base. Ruiz is the only player on the team to steal third base twice this season and both of them have come recently.
(10:15) The Nationals hit a trio of homers on Saturday afternoon despite only scoring four runs. They came from Joey Gallo, Jose Tena, and Juan Yepez in the victory.
(17:00) CJ Abrams did not play for the second straight day and Davey Martinez referred to his ailment as a shoulder impingement. Nasim Nunez took his place at SS and had a throwing error in the field.
(21:20) Patrick Corbin pitched well and earned his sixth victory of the season in six innings of work. Corbin likely has two starts remaining before his contract expires.
(24:30) Trevor Williams will likely be activated soon and they might go a to six-man starting rotation down the stretch.
(28:25) Kyle Finnegan notched his 38th save of the season, 2nd most in the NL.
