Daniel Johnson was the sole Nationals position player to appear in the game, but he was 0-for-5 with one whiff. Defensively, he made two putouts and had five touches total.
Dakota Bacus was the first reliever out of the Mesa bullpen but was stung for a two-run homer in his sole inning of work. He labored through 21 pitches (12 strikes) to get through the 4th.
Jimmy Cordero (pictured above) gave up a hit but maintained his 0.00 ERA with a scoreless inning while striking out the side. He threw 14 pitches, 11 for strikes.
