Nasim Nuñez reached base in all four of his plate appearances, hitting two triples, earning two walks, driving in a run and scoring three more in the team’s victory.
The 7-3 victory extended the Nationals' winning streak to three games and pushed them three games above .500 for the first time since 2019 when they won the World Series.
“Timing is everything,” said Andrew Mintze, a Baltimore man who is taking paid time off to play for the DC Defenders in the United Bowl. “If you’re going to spend it, you spend it at the right time.”
The Orioles were furious when a controversial baserunning call in Sunday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays negated what would have been an inning-ending double play.
“This is a team that was built on its offense,” Mike Elias said. “Getting the offense clicking up and down the lineup is really gonna be a priority for us to improve that record.”
In the final four innings, the Giants intentionally walked Abrams and Wood three times, daring any of the other Washington hitters to beat them. And, for the most part, they couldn’t.
