Summary

The Nats lost 7-3 to the Mets in a very long and active Friday evening in Navy Yard. There were multiple delays, a bench clearing fracas, and Max Scherzer returned to D.C. The brawl came after Steve Cishek hit Francisco Lindor in the top of the 5th, ending Cishek's franchise debut after just two pitches. Mark explains to Al why Cishek was ejected when it did not seem that the pitch was intentional. Was New York manager Buck Showalter to blame for the escalation on the field? (17:03) Max Scherzer made his first appearance at Nationals Park since last summer's trade. He lasted six innings in his Mets debut. What did the hosts notice from Max on the mound? (24:57) Joan Adon will take the mound on Saturday evening as he surprisingly made the rotation to start the season. This will be his 2nd career MLB start, the other being in the season finale in 2021. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
