The Nats beat the Diamondbacks 9-7 on Friday for their 3rd straight victory. Mark (From Phoenix) & Al gather early in the morning after Washington moves past Atlanta for 3rd place in the NL East.

(05:30) James Wood slugged his 16th homer of the season and it is the 3rd time he has left the yard on this road trip. The last time someone in the franchise hit 30+ homers was Juan Soto in 2019.

(08:30) Josh Bell crushed a homer for the 3rd straight evening and is beginning to turn his season around. His shot went 430 feet; above the pool at Chase Field.

(10:45) Robert Hassell III collected a pair of hits and made an impressive throw to the plate to nail Eugenio Suarez. "Bobby Barrels" already has three multi-hit games since making his debut on May 22nd.

(18:00) There multiple instances of great defensive play, including a crucial leaping catch at the wall by Daylen Lile to keep the game tied in the bottom of the 3rd. Luis Garcia Jr. also turned a nifty 4-3 Double Play to help Brad Lord get out of a jam.

(22:10) Kyle Finnegan notched his 16th save of the season; which is 3rd most in all of MLB.

(23:40) Jake Irvin really struggled and allowed four runs in the 1st inning. His season has taken on a seesaw approach, but his ERA is still under 4.00 at 3.93.

(28:30) The Nats are 14-12 in May and this is the first month that they will be over .500 since August 2023.
