The Washington Nationals are mired in a 4-game losing streak. It’s unfortunate. Of course, last night the bullpen pitched great with Brad Lord and Zak Kent — and it was the offense that didn’t do their job as they scored just 1-run en route to a 4-1 loss.

The Washington Nationals were one pitch from taking the first three games in the series then a 2-out home run with two strikes turned into another gut-punch Nats loss. This was like a replay of Tuesday. Baseball can be cruel. Even President of Baseball Operations, Paul Toboni, publicly said that he was “freaking pissed off” after Tuesday’s loss. Wonder how he felt after last night?

The Washington Nationals got going in the right direction last night with a solid 4-1 win over the Phillies. Of course the score should have been much larger if the Nats weren’t jobbed by umpire Jeremie Rehak who per Umpire Scorecard cost the Nats an additional 2.42 runs.

The Washington Nationals hit their high-mark of the season last night at 4-games over .500. The Nats also tied their season’s best 4-game winning streak in that game.

On July 6, 2019, the Nats beat the Kansas City Royals to get to 4-games over .500, and that was the last time the team had seen that exact point above the .500 mark before this. In winning last night, the Nationals clinched the series win against the Kansas City Royals. This afternoon marks the season finale against Kansas City, and the Nats can get to 5-games over .500 like they did on July 7, 2019 against the Royals.
