Washington Nationals
Espino starts strong. Soto homers. Bullpen closes it out.
Sunday's recipe for success was pretty straightforward. https://t.co/ajdhAijLBz
Juan Soto has a .315 batting average and a .990 OPS and 26 HRs. To finish the season he will hit in some of the best hitter's stadiums I'm baseball. He has 4 games in Cincinnati and 3 games in Colorado to win the MVP 🏆.
Gerardo Parra agrees. 🦈

On a Sunday afternoon in which Paolo Espino reached a notable personal goal, Tanner Rainey returned from Triple-A with authority and Juan Soto hit a baseball 454 feet to briefly move into the NL batting title lead. https://t.co/LNNRwScB0n
Soto: "I talked with Trea the other day (about the batting chase). He's relaxed, he's happy. It's going to be fun."
Soto: "I don't even remember the last time I hit a homer. It's been so long.”

Bud Black is a class act. Loving the love for Juan Soto. @jhblack4
Bud Black on Soto: "It's truly remarkable to possess the power, the average, the solid defense, the energy, the personality. What a package, what a player. He makes baseball better."
Time to end the regular season with a W!

Salvage Sunday indeed! Paolo and the ‘Pen deal, Juan blasts and all RBIs with 2 outs.
Ian Sagdal's big three-run blast is today's PSECU Play of the Game!
#Nationals avoid sweep with 3-0 win over #Rockies in series finale; Paolo Espino solid again; Juan Soto hits one 454 ft. to center in D.C. + more...
#Nats now 61-88 https://t.co/NDIEGSLv7I
Final: Nats 3, Rockies 0. Espino and five relievers combine for the shutout, with Rainey looking really sharp and Finnegan bouncing back for the save. Soto hit a 454-foot homer. Nats now leave for 10-game road trip before final weekend at home vs. Red Sox.
