Nunez should have caught that. It was on a bounce. There was no way any catcher was going to throw out the runner with that jump. But that ball is catchable and it's Nunez' job to catch it

He has pop, and with Lile in front of him and CJ behind him, you figure he's somewhat protected from righty relievers. This is the lineup and order from the first game.

He has pop indeed, good call

So Weimer gets the righty, but CJ gets the righty too?

just an awful challenge by Nunez

Nassim taking way too many close pitches... wth is he thinking with a runner on 3rd with less than 2 outs

Joey Wiemer is the first player in franchise history (WSH/MON) to reach base in each of his first six career plate appearances with the club. The previous record was four, done three times:
Ildemaro Vargas: Aug. 3, 2022
Larry Walker: Aug. 16, 1989
Tom Foley: July 13 - July 24, 1986

Impressive! I'd be more impressed if he could finish the season with a 1+ WAR, though🙏
