Watch: Nationals Lose on Walk-Off Home Run for Second Night in a Row

It has been a rough couple of days for the Washington Nationals.

On Sunday, the Nationals watched a 3-0 lead turn into a 4-3 defeat thanks to one swing from Cubs third baseman David Bote.

On Monday it was a different member of the NL Central that decided to crush Washington's hopes of a victory in the bottom of the ninth inning.

The Nationals entered the bottom of the eighth with a 4-2 lead on the Cardinals, but a solo shot from Jedd Gyorko and a three-run go-ahead blast from Matt Carpenter left Washington speechless and looking at a 6-4 deficit with only three outs remaining.
