Game 43: Nats Rally Again to Sweep the O's
44 minutes Posted May 24, 2021 at 3:00 am.
The Nationals held off the Orioles 6-5 to complete the three game sweep. Al & Mark look at how they overcame another disastrous top of the 1st with a heavy dose of early offense. They then put in perspective the recent hot streak for the previously maligned duo of Josh Bell & Kyle Schwarber.
Juan Soto did not run out a pop up with two outs that unexpectedly landed in fair territory and cost Washington a run. Mark gives his take on Davey Martinez admonishing his star player afterwards. Did Martinez handle this situation appropriately?
There was some confusion pregame regarding Victor Robles' status that resulted in him going on the IL due to a right sprained ankle. Al wonders, what exactly happened and did the Nats botch the situation?
