Washington Nationals blow 3-0 lead, drop 3 of 4 to Pittsburgh Pirates with 5-3 loss in PNC

“We had some opportunities with guys on base, we hit the ball hard though, we lined out a few times, we just couldn’t get that big hit with guys on base.” - Davey Martinez last night

Davey Martinez’s club went down in order in the first this afternoon, in the series finale with the Pittsburgh Pirates in PNC Park, but the 4-6 club loaded the bases with one out against Bucs’ left-hander José Quintana in the second, and Riley Adams, in just his second start in 11 games this season, and his seventh plate appearance of 2022, singled to left on a 1-1 curve from Quintana to make it a 1-0 game early.
