Episode 949 Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description

The Nats topped the Orioles 6-4 on Sunday afternoon to bounce back and win the weekend series. Mark (From Camden Yards) & Al throw all the flowers to Luis Garcia Jr., who has been red-hot lately.  Garcia went deep twice, roped a 2-run double, and collected 5 RBIs in the victory.  Washington is now back above .500 after winning both Saturday & Sunday.

(05:00) Garcia Jr. stunningly has homered six times in the last six days.  He has hit 10 home runs this month and his OPS in June is an astronomical 1.142.

(17:00) Revisiting Blake Butera's decision on Saturday night to lift James Wood late in the game for a Jacob Young defensive substitution.  The game extended intro extras and Young had to bat instead of Wood in a close affair.

(23:00) Zack Littell started and lasted five innings in earning the win.  He allowed a pair of runs and he will enter July with a 5.29 ERA.

(25:30) Mitchell Parker exited his relief appearance in pain and he possibly suffered an elbow injury.

(31:00) The Nats move their road trip to Fenway Park for a series that begins on Monday night. Washington currently trails St. Louis by two games for the final wildcard spot.
