Washington Nationals vs Chicago White Sox Game Thread

Follow along as the Nationals look to strike back after a dramatic comeback was undone in the 9th inning yesterday

The Nationals had a dramatic comeback attempt last night. They actually got the lead, but gave it up in the 9th inning, losing 10-9. The Nats could not out-slug their 4 errors last night. Today, they will look to play clean baseball in the penultimate game of the season.

After slugging three homers last night, Luis Garcia Jr. will be playing a sluggers position over at first base. It is something the Nats are experimenting with. Dylan Crews is out of the lineup, which moves Daylen Lile to right field and Josh Bell to DH. Brady House, Nasim Nunez and Jacob Young will come into the lineup. Jorge Alfaro will do the catching for Jake Irvin, who is wrapping up a season to forget.

The White Sox are making a couple changes. Last night Edgar Quero caught and Kyle Teel DH’d. This afternoon that will be flipped. Former Nat Derek Hill will be the starter out in center field today. The White Sox are going with an opener today. It will be left hander Tyler Gilbert.

Before the game, there will be a ceremony for Bob Carpenter, who is retiring. We did a great piece on Bob that you guys should check out. He had such a great run calling Nats games and is forever a legend. The team should be inspired by that and try to win for him. Follow along and let’s go Nats!
