Finnegan's Blown Save Negates House's Heroics
19 minutes Posted Jul 13, 2025 at 5:47 am.
The Nats let it slip it away on Saturday afternoon in their 6-5 walk-off loss in Milwaukee. Al begins with a quick preview of Sunday night's MLB Draft where the Nationals hold the #1 overall pick.  Kade Anderson, pitcher from LSU, is the likeliest selection in the top spot.
Kyle Finnegan inherited a 5-3 lead, but very quickly allowed three Brewers runs.  The final blow came on a Caleb Durbin single after Andrew Vaughn's 2-run double tied up the affair.
Shinnosuke Ogasawara only lasted four innings and shortly after taping was optioned to AAA-Rochester.
Finnegan's blown save ruined the intial storyline that belonged to Brady House.  The rookie hit his first two career MLB homers and the 2nd one gave Washington a 4-3 lead in the top of the 8th.
