The F-Nats sent 18 men to the plate and saw 15 of them score in a 19-0 filet o’fish (OK, fine: F-Marlins). Meanwhile, three FCL Nationals pitchers combined on a one-hit shutout, with one walk and one FCL Marlins player reaching second base. Hence, the F-Marlins’ 0-for-1 mark with RISP. Meanwhile, the F-Nats were a robust 6-for-15 with RISP, which does not include two sacrifice flies and three bases-loaded walks. Ten walks and two hit batsmen combined with 15 hits (seven for extra bases) and an error created 28 baserunners of which only eight were left on base, as the F-Marlins erased their error with a double play. Starting and winning pitcher Juan Reyes was perfect for four innings before giving up a hit and a walk in his fifth and final inning. He struck out six. Adam Bogosian and Ike Buxton both threw 1-2-3 innings in the 6th and 7th, respectively.
