Cade Cavalli, age 27, achieved his first major league win by shutting down the Philadelphia Phillies. He pitched 7 innings, recording 5 strikeouts while allowing no walks or runs. His fastball reached 99.7 MPH, but his striking knuckle curve gained attention, with a significant miss rate from batters. Cavalli's performance solidified his place in the Nationals' rotation, especially during a transitional phase, as he and Brad Lord seek to replace underperforming starters. The return of pitcher Josiah Gray adds another layer of complexity to the Nationals' future rotation plans.
