Duration: 3:04
Weather: 81 degrees, Clear
Wind: 15 MPH Out to Left
Umpires: HP: Ron Kulpa. 1B: Gabe Morales. 2B: Jerry Meals. 3B: Ben May.
Section 315, Row C, Seats 11-13 – on the first base side, not quite
directly behind home plate but close
Weather finally changes for the better. Nationals offense does not, as
they fall 6 games behind the resurgent Mets.
Game notes – Nats stranded two runners in the first and third innings, failing
to score each time … the Rockies opened the scoring on a Carlos Gonzalez HR in
the top of the fourth … Nats loaded the bases with one out in the fifth,
scoring the tying run on a Harper sac fly … Colorado scored the final run of
the game immediately thereafter, when LeMahieu reached on a Turner error and
eventually crossed the plate on a Gonzalez sac fly … Rendon left after the
sixth after fouling a ball off his left big toe … Nats went down 1-2-3 in each
of the last 3 innings, with 6 Ks
Other – perfect baseball weather, as we were comfortable in short
sleeves throughout the game … Metro was uneventful (but crowded) both coming
and going, and we got there in plenty of time to get our Sean Doolittle
bobbleheads
