Game 9: Nats Hang On For Stone Garrett's Big Night

The Nats have won two in a row for the first time in 2023 as they held off the rallying Rockies 7-6 on Saturday evening. Mark (Live from Coors Field) & Al discuss the roller coaster bottom of the 9th where the fatigued bullpen eked out a narrow victory despite being given a five run lead. Did Davey Martinez make the right decisions with his 'pen?

(09:45) Stone Garrett hit 2nd and rewarded his trusting manager with a career evening. Garrett raked four hits and was a triple shy of the cycle, including three extra bases hit.

(17:45) Victor Robles continued his strong offensive start to the season as he doubled (on a controversial call) and laid down an 8th inning safety squeeze to give the Nationals a much needed insurance run. Robles is hitting .370 with an OPS at .913.

(24:40) Trevor Williams continued the pitching staff's run of quality starts in Denver by only allowing two runs. Can Chad Kuhl keep it up on Sunday against his former team?
