Last night’s loss was Washington’s eighth in a row overall, their eighth straight to Atlanta’s Braves this season, and 13th consecutive loss to their NL East rivals at home in Nationals Park.
Wanna feel worse about all this? Who said, “Yes!”?
Anyway, via the Nationals’ post game notes:
“The Braves’ 13 game winning streak at Nationals Park is the longest by any team in the stadium’s history…Nationals Park is one of 12 parks in Major League Baseball where the home team does not outright hold the stadium’s longest win streak.”
Ouch.
“[The Nationals] are a team that has lost 24 of its last 26 games to division opponents.
