## Resource

The Nationals road trip ended on a sour note as they lost 15-1 to the Reds, missing a chance to sweep and finish with a 21-23 record. Foster Griffin struggled, giving up a career-high 9 runs, but manager Blake Butera remains confident in his performance. With the bullpen taxed, outfielder Joey Wiemer pitched in the 8th, and reliever Zak Kent was optioned to Triple-A. The Nats were outscored 41-31 on the trip, but theyre back home, aiming for daily improvement to climb the standings. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
