Summary

The Nats beat the Cubs 4-1 on Tuesday night as the offense broke the tie open in the 7th with a trio of runs. Al & Mark start though by breaking down the curious continued calls for bunting; highlighted by Alex Call's 5th inning bunt that blew up on Washington. This conversation is the definition of "Inside Baseball". (15:30) The bottom of the order came through with five hits between Victor Robles and CJ Abrams. Robles surprisingly leads the team with a .732 OPS. (18:00) Trevor Williams pitched well and is the only member of the rotation who has lasted at least five innings per start. Was this his best outing of the year? (30:20) Jake Irvin (RHP) will start Wednesday night for the Nationals as he is getting called up for AAA Rochester to make his Major League debut. Mark explains all the reason that led to Irvin getting the nod instead of others in the organization and insight into an impossible to be believe Washington trivia note.
