Gore Takes the Mound but the Offense Gets Shutout

The Nats had to settle for a series split in Miami after dropping Thursday night's finale 5-0. Al & Tim gather after Washington was shutout for the 12th time this season to conclude their otherwise winning road trip.

(04:00) MacKenzie Gore returned from the 15-Day IL to toss five innings in the loss.  Gore allowed two runs in the first inning and struck out four Marlins in the outing.

(08:05) CJ Abrams had a throwing error and it was his 18th of the season. Abrams has the 3rd most errors in Baseball and his defense is called into question.  Abrams did however steal his 30th base of the season, reaching the milestone for the 3rd straight year.

(11:20) James Wood had the day off and the offense was quite anemic in his absence. RIley Adams was back behind the plate and hit 3rd in the lineup.

(14:30) Response to a report by the Washington Post's Barry Svrluga about the latest phase in the GM search.

(23:45) Terry Byrom, the long time voice of the AA-Harrisburg Senators, is calling his final game on Sunday. We replay an interview that Tim held with Terry back in late May of 2023 when James Wood was still in AA.
