Mets Get to Irvin This Time
Episode description
Jake Irvin had a bad Tuesday as it began by getting snubbed again for an open All-Star spot and it ended with him giving up six runs in the Nats 7-5 loss at the Mets. Al & Tim discuss how all the runs Irvin gave up came with two outs, including Brandon Nimmo's 3-run HR in the bottom of the 2nd. Irvin last week tossed eight shutout innings vs. New York on July 4th.
(11:00) The Nationals offense was no match for Jose Quintana, but did score all five runs against the NY bullpen. They scored three runs in the top of 9th and it was consequential as it forced closer Edwin Diaz to record the final out.
(20:00) We dig into a listener email that wonders if Juan Soto will consider returning to D.C. this offseason.
