Raudy Read Drew Millas couldn’t handle a 58′ curve from Daison Acosta, which enabled Atlanta’s Patrick Clohisy to scamper in with the winning run as the Braves dealt the Nats their second straight loss last night, 4-3. Jake Irvin pitched into the third in the longest outing thus far, allowing no runs on two walks …
Back-to-back singles with two out in the 9th brought the tying run to the plate, but Andrew Pinckney struck out looking as the Nats dropped their first 2025 Grapefruit League game, 3-0 to the Astros.

Highlighted by a two-run HR by Robert Hassell and two-run single by Brady House, the Nats broke open a 6-5 game with a six-run 6th as they downed the Marlins, 14-7 on Tuesday afternoon.

Washington scored four times in its first five “ups” to take a 9-3 lead and won their second straight game, 11-6.

But otherwise, Mark Zuckerman has you covered on the 29 pitchers and 28 position players trying to make the club. For us, however, …
