Washington Nationals news & notes: Nats win series; drop finale to Twins, 3-1 in Target Field

Given a 1-0 lead to work with before he took the mound in Minnesota’s Target Field, Patrick Corbin tossed three scoreless to start on Sunday afternoon, on 55 pitches, working out of a bases loaded jam in the second, after giving up a leadoff single, one-out single, and two-out walk, and stranding two batters in the third after a leadoff ROE and a two-out hit.

His 57th pitch went 380 feet to left and into the stands, however, with Jorge Polanco’s home run tying things up at 1-1 in the series finale.

Swings that sent baseballs a total of 824 feet.
