## Resource

The Nationals unleashed a historic offensive explosion, crushing the Athletics 23-0 in a franchise-record-setting win that snapped their losing streak and sent a bold message: they’re here to compete. Cade Cavalli anchored the pitching with six strong innings and nine strikeouts, but the real fireworks came from the bats—led by Andrés Chaparro’s career night with eight RBIs, four hits, and two homers. Every starter hit, and even a late defensive switch-in got in on the fun. This win not only brought them back to .500 but proved they’ve got the firepower to dominate the second half.
