Episode Details

The Nats were shutout by Cincinnati 3-0 to lose the series. Al & Mark yet again need to focus on sleepy offensive output for Washington. Juan Soto had three hits in the series, but his lack of slugging remains a concern. As games like this continue to stack up, will this affect the status of the hitting coach?

(13:46) Recap of Stephen Strasburg's start, that began by allowing a leadoff HR. How did his stuff look in his 2nd start since returning from the IL?

(18:48) This begins our "Festivus" portion of the episode where grievances are aired. Mark laments the continuation of seven inning doubleheaders, a carryover from 2020 rules. Al then points out what it is he favors about seven inning games.

(27:22) Al continues the rant vibe by sticking up for the local fans who did not receive consistent and helpful information while trying to wait out Wednesday night's rain delay.

(32:09) We conclude with a preview of the weekend series against Milwaukee, including a top flight pitching matchup on Sunday. Do you remember what happened last time the Brewers came to D.C?
