Game 136: Gray & Voth Each Allow Six Runs in Defeat

The Nationals lost to the Mets 13-6 in a game that was competitive until the top of the 9th. Mark & Al recap Josiah Gray's second straight clunker of a start, which immediately began with him surrendering four runs. What is the appropriate level of concern to have on Gray right now?

(15:20) Riley Adams got the start behind the plate as opposed to Keibert Ruiz. Mark explains why that was the case and what to maybe expect for Monday.

(18:48) The bullpen on Sunday was all over the map as a few were outstanding and some were the opposite. Austin Voth had a nightmarish top of the 9th as he faced six batters and all came across to score.

(26:08) Lane Thomas might have had his best game yet as he hit a leadoff HR, flashed leather, and threw a runner out at 3rd. What to make of this stretch that Thomas has been having?

(32:32) Josh Bell slugged his 24th HR of the season, which matches Juan Soto's total. Bell's OPS finally surpassed .800 for the season.
