The Home for Washington Nationals Game Talk

The Washington Nationals are back home after a very successful 5-2 road trip. The team is bobbing and weaving by the .500 level, and at 15-16 it won’t be easy as the team will face the Blue Jays best two pitchers tonight and tomorrow while the Nats send the struggling Patrick Corbin (0-3, 6.82 ERA) to the mound this evening.

The Washington Nationals played an absolute thriller in Texas last night and came away with a 1-0 victory in the process. Starter Trevor Williams set a modern baseball record by starting a game and working out of two bases loaded situations over two innings with no outs, and came away with a scoreless start over 5.0 innings. He played Houdini and made the baserunners disappear twice. That is walking a tightrope over fire that few survive — yet he did. A suggestion: Don’t Try It Again.

The Washington Nationals arrived in Texas on their American Airlines charter late last night while celebrating a 4-game sweep in Miami that took the team to the .500 mark. A win tonight by the Nats would get the team above .500 for the first time since July 1 of 2021. For Nationals’ fans, it has been a long three years, in waiting, to see their team experience a sustained modicum of successes.

The Washington Nationals are coming off of one of their most improbable wins in their history, with a comeback from 7-runs down. With 23-runs scored in their past two games and three wins in this four game series, the Nats could win a rare four game series today. The last time they won a series of four or more games was on September 26, 2019 as they took a five game series from the Phillies. Yes, 2019. These scrappy Nats don’t give up, and they fight until the end. With a win today, the Nats would also reach the .500 mark for the first time, this late into a season, since July 2, 2021.
