Game 42: Zimmerman HRs & Sets Franchise Run Record in Comeback Win
Episode description
The Nationals beat Baltimore 12-9 despite falling behind 5-0 in the 1st. Al & Mark open the discussion on Josh Harrison, who hit a grand slam that changed the game around in the 3rd, while also playing a new position in the field.
(9:40) Ryan Zimmerman had a banner day between clubbing a 3 run HR to take Washington's first lead of the game and setting a franchise record for runs scored. The hosts point out that we are used to the fans asking Zim for curtain calls, but how much more these moments mean Post 2020.
(18:40) Despite the victory and the offensive output, it was not a good day for the pitching staff. Is there cause for concern for Jon Lester as he has had two straight bad starts? Plus, are the Nats in danger of overusing Daniel Hudson?
(32:52) We close with a listener email about the effect on the team related to Carter Kieboom not making the big league roster.
