The Washington Nationals triumphed 4-3 against the Baltimore Orioles, driven by a powerful home run from James Wood and a late-game sacrifice fly from Luis GarcÃa Jr. After some early season losses, the Nationals have shown improvement, now boasting a 5-3 record in one-run games. Closer Kyle Finnegan solidified the win with his ninth save, positioning him second in the majors. The teamâs success reflects their hard work and resilience, particularly for young players stepping up amidst injuries.
We lost some games earlier that we should have won. But they put that aside, and they're playing hard every day.
It's big for the young guys to recognize that if we focus on what we can control, when we look up at the end of the game, we'll be in it.
At first I wasn't sure about the idea of, like, 'Right away you're hitting,' but I just think you kind of get used to it.
James Wood's 116.3 mph blast is the hardest hit ball by a Nationals player at Nationals Park since MLB began tracking exit velocities in 2015.
