Luis Garcia Jr. drove in two runs, including a go-ahead home run in the seventh, and the Washington Nationals defeated the host Cincinnati Reds 4-1 on Sunday.

The Nationals took two-of-three in the weekend series.

Tyler Stephenson homered for the Reds.

Washington scored three in the seventh inning to break a 1-all tie.

Jorge Lopez (4-0) pitched two perfect innings and Kyle Finnegan worked the ninth for his 11th save.

Garcia Jr. gave the Nationals a 2-1 lead with his third homer of the season with one out in the seventh. With a 3-2 count and on the ninth pitch of the at bat, Garcia Jr. drilled a slider into the right field stands. Then with two out, CJ Abrams poked an opposite-field double into left-center field to drive in two more. Reliever Graham Ashcraft (2-3), who started the inning for the Reds, gave up all three runs in 2/3 of an inning.

Washington starter MacKenzie Gore allowed a run on four hits in five innings, in which he threw 100 pitches (61 for strikes), walking four and striking out nine to add to his major league-leading K total, now with 68.

Cincinnati starter Nick Martinez gave up a run and four hits in six innings with no walks and six strikeouts. He threw 86 pitches, 56 for strikes.

In the fifth inning with two outs, the Reds’ Elly De La Cruz’s drive down the left field line was originally called fair and a home run, but the call was reversed to a foul ball.

Stephenson tied it at 1 with his first home run of the season to lead off the bottom of the second.

Garcia Jr.’s sacrifice fly in the second gave Washington a 1-0 lead.

Infield singles by Matt McClain and Santiago Espinal gave Cincinnati an opportunity with runners on first and second and no outs in the first. But Gore got out of it by getting two fielder’s choice grounders and then striking out Spencer Steer swinging to end the inning.

The game’s start was delayed about 20 minutes due to weather.

Pittsburgh Pirates’ Paul Skenes: Honors without a Ring

The Pittsburgh Pirates’ ace pitcher Paul Skenes has had a tremendous start to his Major League Baseball career. In his first two seasons he has won several of the major awards presented following the end of each baseball season. Unfortunately for the young man is the team he plays for. Perennial losers and a club that hasn’t made the playoffs since 2015, the Bucs future is bleak. The Pirates chances of competing for a postseason appearance is next to none. What does that mean for one of the best pitchers in baseball? Paul Skenes may never have a shot at winning a World Series title if he remains in Pittsburgh. Having won the Rookie of the Year and the Cy Young Award in back-to-back years, places Skenes in a very special Pirates class. Only two men before him wearing a […]

The Englishwoman defeated Ted Evetts and Mensur Suljovic before eventually being knocked out by Chris Dobey in the last 32, although failed to qualify the following year and suffered first-round exits in each of her next four appearances.

Španělé ze Skotska! Ostrovní soupeř překvapil kapitána Sparty

Sparta, stejně jako před každým zápasem, absolvovala několik sezení u videa. Realizační tým vrýval hráčům do hlav poznatky třeba o způsobu výstavby hry. No, a ten by mohl leckoho překvapit.„Možná byste od skotského týmu čekali, že bude hrát ostrovní fotbal. Od stopera kopne vysoký balon na útočníka. Ale z videa to skoro vypadalo, jak kdybychom hráli s nějakými Španěly,“ vykládal Haraslín.„To zase ne, pořád jsme skotský mančaft,“ reagoval na jeho slova s úsměvem kouč Aberdeenu Jimmy Thelin. Zkusí to i na Letné hezky po zemi odzadu? Možná by se to nabízelo, jeho svěřenci už vzhledem k zisku pouhých dvou bodů neživí ani teoretickou šanci na místenku do pohárového jara.„Snažíme se na výstavbě hry pracovat, zlepšovat se v rozehrávce. Bude to zajímavá konfrontace, protože Sparta je skvělá v presinku,“ tuší Thelin. Trenér Aberdeenu, mimochodem, během tiskové konference několikrát pochválil realizační tým svého čtvrtečního soka. V čele s Brianem Priskem.„Sparta má velmi dobrého trenéra. […]

Zach Wilson ‘frustrated’ after Dolphins pick Quinn Ewers as starter over him after Tua Tagovailoa benching

It wasn't exactly a surprise when the Miami Dolphins announced Wednesday they were benching starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. That had been a long time coming.It was, however, somewhat unexpected when the team tapped seventh-round rookie Quinn Ewers as the new starter and not the more experienced Zach Wilson. Especially for Wilson, apparently.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementSpeaking with the Miami Herald after Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel announced the change under center, Wilson reportedly said he was "frustrated" and maybe a little confused as well" about being passed over for starting duties this coming Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.He did wish Ewers well, though, via the Herald:"Of course I would love to play," Wilson said. "...I can't control that. My job is to go out and do the best I can. Keep preparing, .... getting better, supporting Quinn. Excited for him to get his first […]
