Nola’s first K of the game.
Rojas seems to frequently have trouble reading pitchers when he's on first. He's very fast, but he doesn't appear to be a skilled base stealer at this point.

Third straight game that Nola can’t even get through 5 innings.
Aaron Nola is done after 4⅔ innings. His third straight start under 5 innings. The only other time in his MLB career that's happened was in June 2016, shortly before he was shut down with an elbow injury.— Corey Seidman ( @CSeidmanNBCS ) September 16, 2023

At this point just put Cave at first and keep Bohm at third. Also once again Castro is technically on the roster, but do they actually dress him for games?— Matt Winkelman ( @Matt_Winkelman ) September 16, 2023
