Episode description

The Nats scored three runs off of Josh Hader in the 9th for a 6-3 victory in San Diego. Mark (Live from Petco Park) & Al open with the exciting top of the 9th that gave the Nationals their second straight win over the Padres. Hats off to Alex Call for picking a very good time to hit his first career HR.

(09:22) Keibert Ruiz reached base five times, collected two hits, had a RBI and stole a base. This was a major boost to the offense since Luke Voit did not play (back tightness).

(14:45) CJ Abrams had an up and down game as he came through with a two run single, but did make a routine throwing error. Any cause for concern that he has made a pair of those this week?

(20:30) Paolo Espino allowed three runs in just over four innings as he issued four walks. Erick Fedde returns to the rotation; could he take away Paolo's spot? His numbers in relief are better than that as a starter this season.

(28:50) Did you know that the MLB Draft order rules changed with the new CBA? There will be a lottery for non playoff teams as opposed to the worst being guaranteed the number one pick in order to deter tanking.
