Summary

The Nats rallied to win 3-2 in Atlanta and avoid the sweep. Mark & Al begin with another dramatic HR by Joey Meneses, who hit a 2 run shot in the 7th to grab the lead. Meneses has hit 10 homers since being called up on August 2nd, including three late HRs that led to victory. (09:45) An emailer inquires about a stain on Meneses' resume, as he was once suspended in Japan for PED use. The hosts explore this part of his career as best they can with little information available on the subject. (16:55) Tres Barrera was in the lineup for the first time since being called up and came through with two hits and threw out a runner trying to steal in the 7th inning. This leads to answering an emailer about one of the potential side effects of enlarging the bases. (27:40) Paolo Espino did not get the win, but received plenty of help from his bullpen, as they combined for five scoreless frames. We conclude with asking Mark if he thinks Patrick Corbin will take the mound again this season; after he exited Tuesday night early due to back spasms. Learn more about your ad choices.
