Summary

The Nats took the series in Seattle by scoring seven runs in the top of the 10th for a 9-3 victory. Mark (From T-Mobile Park) & Al discuss the Nationals eighth victory in their past eleven games. They are just a half game back of the Braves for 3rd place in the NL East. (05:20) Luis Garcia Jr. had four hits that included a 2-run extra inning double to give Washington breathing room. (07:00) Josh Bell homered for the second straight game; his 8th of the season. Bell's 3-run shot firmly put the game out of reach and gave the Nats a seven run lead. (10:00) James Wood didn't go deep, but did begin the scoring with a 2-run double in the top of the 6th. The Mariners brought in their lone lefty to face Wood and he still managed to come through with a big hit. (17:30) MacKenzie Gore struck out eight hitters in six innings of work on 95 pitches. Gore now has 101Ks on the season to lead Baseball; seven ahead of Zack Wheeler. (23:10) Four relievers were needed and it was a big evening for Jose A. Ferrar, who retired all five batters he faced. Kyle Finnegan pitched the bottom of the 10th, his first action in a week due to shoulder fatigued. (27:15) An extended conversation on Keibert Ruiz's defensive struggles behind the plate.
