Washington Nationals news & notes: Joan Adon leaves starts with cramps in legs; Nats beat A’s 8-2 in D.C.

Joan Adon was perfect through 5 23 innings in his first start in the majors in 2023, back on July 5th in Cincinnati, but he finally gave up a couple two-out singles and a three-run blast before recording the final out of the Reds’ half of the sixth inning.

“I think he ran out of gas,” manager Davey Martinez said of the end of the 24-year-old right-hander’s outing in what ended up a 7-3 win for Washington.

“We talk about the breaking balls,” the Nationals’ skipper continued.
