"CJ Abrams is still red-hot. Believe it or not, the Nationals did have a lead at one point in this game. Abrams hit a first-inning solo home run off of Paul Skenes of all people, unfortunately that would also be the Nats' last hit off Skenes in his six innings."
"Jacob Young also homered tonight, for his second of the season, in what ended up being a four-run top of the seventh inning for Washington, aided by a two-run single by Nasim Nunez."
"On the pitching side of things, Paxton Schultz did a pretty solid job in relief of Cade Cavalli, who was pulled in the second inning. Even better, Orlando Ribalta threw a scoreless inning in his big league debut this season."
The Nationals faced a tough loss against the Pirates, scoring 5 runs while the Pirates scored 16. CJ Abrams hit a solo home run, and Jacob Young contributed with a homer as well. Daylen Lile raised his batting average to .286 with two hits. On the pitching side, Paxton Schultz performed well in relief, and Orlando Ribalta made a successful big league debut. The Nationals aim to recover in the next game of the series against the Pirates.
