Summary

The losing streak is extended to five after the Nats were crushed 11-2 on Wednesday afternoon at Yankee Stadium. New York hit six homers in the series finale and out-homered Washington 10-2 in the three game series. (06:30) Cade Cavalli fell apart in the bottom of the 3rd as he gave up a trio of homers and seven earned runs in his outing. The Yanks scored nine runs in that frame, which is more than the Nationals scored all series. (11:15) Drew Millas fractured a finger mid-game and Riley Adams had to move from DH to behind the plate. This led to Shinnosuke Ogasawara batting for himself and keeping the bat on his shoulder for three straight pitches. (20:00) Despite Thursday being a day off, the next two starters will be Mitchell Parker & Jake Irvin this weekend vs. Tampa Bay. (26:25) Miguel Cairo was asked point blank if the team has hit "rock bottom".
