Game 7: Gray's Gem Wasted in Coors Field

The Nationals skid extended to four games in a 1-0 loss in Colorado. Mark (Live for Coors Field) & Al balance the negative of the lineup with the big picture positive of Josiah Gray only allowing one run in six innings. Yet again a Nats outfielder lost a ball in the sun (Lane Thomas), and it was a very costly one that led to the lone run.

(15:40) Washington was shutout and only had one runner reach scoring position. The troubles aren't only with the bats, they surprisingly are only 1 for 4 in stolen base attempts this year.

(23:20) Joey Meneses had a rough day at the plate and is well below the Mendoza Line so far (.172). Why has he looked lost so far this season in the batter's box? Luis Garcia returned to the lineup and singled in the afternoon, but Mark points out what troubled him with his approach at the plate. The offense so far has only homered twice in seven games!
