In a tremendously long rain delay, the Nationals once again sparked a comeback, but once again fell short, dropping their 4th straight of the year, 6-5 to the Braves.
Elijah Dukes had a good night, going 3-6, but also injured his hamstring at the end of the game. Lastings Milledge, Christian Guzman, and Ryan Zimmerman each had two hits apiece. Zimmy doubled twice and knocked in 2 runs.
Starting rookie Shairon Martis pitched 3 inning, aloowing 5 hits and 3 runs. You want to know why the Nationals are 0-4, don’ty look too much past the starting ptiching. Each of the 4 starters now have pitched 1 game. Combined, the starters have allowed 22 runs in 15 innings. That is absolutely pathetic.
The Nast will look for their first win tonight against the Braves. John Lannan returns to the mound after his disastrous opening start where he yielded 6 runs in 5 innings.
