A third-inning grand slam would prove to be enough as the Mets doubled up the Nats, 6-3 for their second loss in three ST games. Josiah Gray was in midseason form with two scoreless innings, two hits allowed, and five K’s without issuing a walk. Robert Garci, the August waiver-wire claim from the Marlins, lived …
James Wood went deep again as the Nats doubled up the Marlins, 6-3 this afternoon. MacKenzie Gore got the start and gave up a run on two hits. He walked none and struck out four. Jake Irvin followed in the 3rd and put up an identical line. With a day game after a night game …

Unlike football, this is never too soon. Just one more day of breathless stories about batting practice. he You can tune in to the nationals feed on MLB.com tomorrow night to hear Charlie & Dave, or set the DVR for the tape-delay on MLB Network at 10 p.m. By the way, the MLB interns got …

Unlike …
I guess this is the Nats’ PR telling us “bloggers” to STFU about no news?! And it’s certainly a far cry from three years ago. This year it’s seven games on MASN, and perhaps one or two more on the MLB Network if/when the interns get around to updating this page one on the MLB …
