11th Straight Loss

The Nats dropped their 11th in a row on Wednesday night in a 3-1 loss to the visiting last place Rockies. Al & Mark make immediate note that they are just one game away from the tying 2008 franchise mark of 12 consecutive defeats.

(06:00) James Wood's RBI double in the bottom of the 7th was the only extra base hit of the evening for Washington.
