I felt pretty bad after the first inning on top of losing four in a row but it turned out to be a very solid game. Patrick Corbin's ERA is below 4.5 now!

Davey handled the pitching masterfully.  Turned out a good decision to pull Corbin although Edwards was a bit shaky.

LOL.  Don't look at the standings before Memorial Day.  For the Nats probably July Fourth.

Jesse D. on Lane Thomas: maybe a hitter, throws to the right base, strong arm, but some doubts about his fielding. I think Jesse is too pessimistic. Thomas is OK for now.
