Summary

The Nats lost 7-3 in Milwaukee in another game that had a glacial pace of play. Mark & Al continue to praise Lane Thomas as he had another impressive game while patrolling CF and hitting leadoff. Carter Kieboom also had a solid Sunday, including on the defensive end. (19:30) Sean Nolin and the bullpen tied a franchise record by issuing 11 walks as the pitching was very difficult to watch this weekend. Austin Voth returned to pitch a scoreless frame, where does he fit into the new bullpen hierarchy? (29:50) Monday is the ten year anniversary of when D.C. experienced an earthquake as the Nats played Arizona later that night at home. Mark recalls how hectic and unforgettable that time was for him and his family. **Audio Courtesy of ABC News (39:27) We close with another listener submitted voice memo recalling October 2019.
