Blake Snell (2-1, 2.42) vs. Jackson Kent (1-2, 5.59).
I'm aware that blogger wouldn't let comments publish on last night's Game Thread. I happened to be listening while on a nighttime run, and it was driving me nuts as I heard us squandering scoring opportunities (we only scored our first run on a wild pitch, and ended the game 1-for-9 with RISP) all over the place.
After Dalton Rushing's eighth inning failure with the bases loaded (he struck out, with the Dodgers down 2-1), I figured all was lost. Surprisingly, Teoscar Hernandez came through with a one-out double in the bottom of the ninth to score Tommy Edman and Mookie Betts, winning the game 3-2..
Oh, and Kyle Tucker went 0-for-3 with a K. He's now batting .225 and has a -0.2 WAR, for his $60M salary.
I wish I could have commented on this one. I'm glad we avoided the sweep.
We're tied for the second playoff bye spot, along with Atlanta. It would be great to start swatting (g)Nats tonight.
