Summary

The Nats lost 4-2 to the Mets for a 9th consecutive home defeat. Al & Mark open with the poor defense on display as the Nationals made a pair of errors that were compounded by subpar baserunning. Why so many instances of runners getting thrown out by wide margins on the bases? (12:30) Patrick Corbin had his third straight good start as he threw five scoreless innings despite issuing four walks. It seems to be the new norm that Riley Adams will be his personal catcher. An indictment of Ruiz or just do whatever works? (19:47) Juan Soto is 3 for his 17 and showed a lot of frustration in his final at bat on Tuesday night. Mark explains what he saw during the crucial moment in the 8th. (22:45) Carl Edwards Jr. was the new bullpen arm after some musical chairs with the roster, but he picked up the loss after allowing three runs in the 6th.
