The Nats pulled off their first series sweep in Milwaukee since 2006 on Sunday afternoon. Mark & Al dissect the 8-6 victory that saw more production from James Wood at the plate.  Wood went deep for the 5th time this season and his OPS has shot up to 1.005. Wood also stole home as part of proper execution of "The Play".

) Jose Tena & Curtis Mead each came through with RBIs as pinch-hitters in the top of the 7th.

) Jacob Young had a single and double in the victory and his OPS is an encouraging .789.

) Zack Littell allowed three runs and all of them came off of solo homers in five innings of work.

) Ken Waldichuk left the mound while holding his pitching arm in pain.  Waldichuk had Tommy John surgery previously in October 2023.

) Gus Varland notched the save and it seems like that position is still up for grabs.

) The Nationals move their road trip to Pittsburgh and the first game on Monday will feature Paul Skenes vs. Cade Cavalli.
