The Washington Nationals' bullpen, previously underperforming, showed signs of improvement during a 4-2 win against the Philadelphia Phillies. With a three-run lead and four innings to secure it, bench coach Miguel Cairo led the team in Manager Dave Martinez's absence. Key performance from relievers like Jose A. Ferrer and Jorge López aided in overcoming a challenging lineup. Additionally, hitters such as Nathaniel Lowe and Keibert Ruiz contributed with elevated performances at the plate, signaling a possible turning point for the struggling bullpen.
"That's what we have to do every day," Ferrer said through a translator.
"These guys have been playing their butts off," Cairo said. "That was a great team win."
