Game 27: Escobar Commits Another Error in High Scoring Loss

The Nats were outslugged by the Rockies 9-7 as Coors Field lived up to its reputation. Mark (live from Denver) and Al recap the afternoon defeat where Alcides Escobar committed his third error in under 24 hours.(10:01) Josh Rogers gave up a 3 run HR out of the bullpen as did starter Aaron Sanchez. What is Rogers' exact role on this team right now?(19:25) Juan Soto was caught napping at 3rd base for a crucial out in the 5th inning. Mark explains the "Inside Baseball" that went into that play. However, he did homer in the 1st inning.(23:31) Keibert Ruiz had a solid afternoon as he homered, doubled, and also threw out a runner trying to steal second base.(30:07) Next up is a three game series in Anaheim. Shohei Ohtani pitched on Thursday and therefore the Nationals will only see him at the plate. Plus, believe it or not, it will be the first time that Anthony Rendon will face his old team.
