The Nats were easily beaten by the Phillies 11-6 on Saturday afternoon in Navy Yard. Mark & Al spend plenty of time on the bullpen, which has performed poorly in both games so far this season. Jake Irvin departed a tied game after five innings and four relievers combined to give up nine runs following his exit. The 'pen is not only giving up a bunch of runs, but they are issuing a ton of walks along the way.

(22:00) Keibert Ruiz homered for the second straight game and briefly put Washington ahead 2-0. Ruiz also added a double and has had success from both sides of the plate this week.

(24:05) Amed Rosario had a trio of hits including a homer. Rosario hit 5th in the order and got the start at 2B over Luis Garcia Jr. in order to face the lefty starter.

(27:10) Nathaniel Lowe went deep for the first time as a National and has flashed solid leather so far at 1B.

(29:00) Dylan Crews mad a great play in the field, but went 0 for 5 with 5 Ks while hitting 2nd in the lineup.

(35:30) In depth discussion on the new City Connect uniforms that were worn on Saturday.
