The Nats held off the Marlins 4-3 on Sunday afternoon to close the season series with a dominant 11-2 record against Miami. Al & Tim put in perspective how many positives emerged from the victory; that showed the potential for the near future.

(04:00) James Wood crushed a pair of homers and now has seven in his rookie season. Both of the blasts had exit velocities that exceeded 100 MPH.

(12:10) CJ Abrams missed a third straight game due to a shoulder impingement. Nasim Nunez got the start again at SS and drew a walk, the only time he made it on base this series.

(16:00) MacKenzie Gore had a solid start for the fourth time in the past five outings. Gore struck out five Marlins in six innings of work and his ERA dropped a bit to 4.17. Gore likely has two starts remaining in this season.

(25:00) The Nats are now four wins away from surpassing last season's win total. However, this will be their 5th straight October sitting at home.

(28:45) Tim makes his case to Al as to why batting average is being overly dismissed in the modern age.
