They started with a runner on second, which helps, but both Carter Kieboom and Andrew Stevenson walked to start the tenth inning last night, taking free passes from Toronto Blue Jays’ reliever Shun Yamaguchi to set up a rally that eventually led to the Nationals’ 4-0 win.
Victor Robles and Trea Turner K’d swinging for the first two outs of the frame, but an Adam Eaton grounder up the middle in the next at bat, bounced off Yamaguchi’s foot in an skate-save type move, and bounced to second baseman Cavan Biggio, who hustled to second to try for a force on Stevenson.
