The Natis have shocked the world for a second day in a row, but this time in a good way. After storming back to take the lead on Saturday just to blow the game on a walk off walk, the Nats once again had an epic comeback for a 9th inning lead on Sunday.

Earlier this week, we wrote about MacKenzie Gore - one of the six players acquired from the San Diego Padres in exchange for Juan Soto and Josh Bell. The other young big leaguer who was part of that haul was shortstop CJ Abrams.

This game went from pitching duel to barn burner to coin flip in a matter of minutes. The Nationals got a great performance from MacKenzie Gore and 7 runs of offense, but ultimately still fell short due to their bullpen.

The Nats offense was quiet outside Luis Garcia. They struck out 12 times as a team to just one walk. They also only had two RISP all game long and were 0 for 2 in that situation. Gray wasn't sharp, allowing 3 runs, but that was all the DBacks needed.

The Nationals could not continue their momentum gained from Sunday into the opener against the Chicago Cubs as they drop the first game 5 to 1. Their lone run came on a solo shot from Lane Thomas in the 2nd inning, his first home run of the season.

After a beautiful series versus New York, Washington headed back home to host Pittsburgh. Although not as pretty, the Nationals salvaged Sunday's game behind a strong start from Josiah Gray. Did he take home Pitcher of the Week honors?

The Nationals were on the brink of being swept by the red-hot Pirates after dropping the doubleheader on Saturday in a very lackluster effort when Josiah Gray delivered a sorely needed strong start to the team, who rallied around him to win 7 to 2.

The Nationals have dropped game 1 of their double header today against the Pittsburgh Pirates in a lackluster effort. The Nationals had plenty of opportunities to do damage, but frequently failed to deliver that timely hit, losing by a score of 6 to 3.
