Aaron Nola 5.0 5 1 1 1 6 0 105-72 4.49
Matt Strahm 1.0 1 0 0 0 2 0 13-10 3.49

Probably should be considered a victory to only give up one run that inning. Need the bats to come alive now.

Good job by Strahm limiting the damage to one run in spite of giving up the double.

Nola puts up 5 scoreless innings before leaving with two on in the sixth. A gutsy outing made more difficult by sloppy fielding behind him.

Without runs, no pitcher can win. I feel the Phillies breaking this open soon. They have only one hit, but plenty of runners with 7 walks.

Bryson Stott

Stone Garrett remains in the game as the left fielder.
Ball (90.5 mph four-seam fastball)
Called strike (91.2 mph sinker)
Called strike (90.9 mph sinker)
Batter Timeout.
In play, no out (92.1 mph sinker)

Bryson Stott reaches on a missed catch error by pitcher Patrick Corbin, assist to first baseman Dominic Smith.

Corbin done for the night. New pitcher for the Nationals will be RHP Andres Machado.

Error's abound tonight. Doesn't seem windy, just an oddity I guess

Trea Turner

Mound Visit.
Pitching Change: Andres Machado replaces Patrick Corbin.
Ball (95.5 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, run(s) (96.7 mph four-seam fastball)

Trea Turner homers (12) on a fly ball to left center field. Bryson Stott scores.

Philadelphia Phillies 2 - Washington Nationals 1

Good call.
