There have not been a lot of positives to talk about lately with the Nationals, but I came away impressed with Michael Soroka’s performance. He came back to Atlanta for the first time since leaving the Braves, where has played most of his career. The numbers were not eye popping, but there is reason to believe he has success on the horizon.
On the surface, Soroka did not have an outstanding outing. A high pitch count forced him to exit after four innings, where he allowed two runs, both via a Drake Baldwin homer. Soroka allowed four hits and one walk while striking out four batters.
