For the last two seasons, if I got to the stadium early enough, I noticed Miguel Cairo running either on the field or in the stands. So after the all-star break, I asked if I could run with him and interview him. Here’s what we talked about:.

The Nationals outhit the Yankees on Tuesday. Sometimes, that edge alone can determine who will win a game. A more predictive factor: hitting for power. The good teams have it; the bad teams have to string hits together to keep up. That showed tonight: .

On a night the big again proves elusive, MacKenzie Gore makes one big mistake and Giancarlo Stanton makes him pay in a 5-1 loss to the Yankees.

FINAL: Yankees (Giancarlo Stanton) 5, Nationals 1. MacKenzie Gore allowed three runs in the third but was solid. The Nationals left 9 runners on base.

Beeter walked three hitters in that frame but got Jazz Chisholm to pop out to shortstop in Beeter's first outing against the team that traded him (& Browm Martinez) for Amed Rosario.
José Caballero just got an insane lead and stole second. Clayton Beeter didn't even step off the mound.

Giancarlo Stanton just launched a two-run homer in the sixth inning off Orlando Ribalta. 5-1 Yankees.

The Nationals loaded the bases in the sixth. The Yankees brought in Tim Hill to face James Wood. Wood grounded out to third base. 3-1 NY, bottom 6.

Another aggressive send by Ricky Gutierrez and it cost the Nationals. James Wood was thrown out by a mile at home after Josh Bell singled.

They went to a full count and Stanton hit a three-run double off the wall in left field. The curveball locations of Gore's two doubles in this frame. Right over the heart of the plate:
Big spot for MacKenzie Gore here. He's allowed a two-out double followed by a pair of two-out walks. Giancarlo Stanton will bat with the bases loaded.

Looking at replay, Gutierrez was waving Hassell home until he touched third. Then, he put up a very late stop sign but Hassell kept going.

CJ Abrams with an RBI single and the Nationals have a 1-0 lead. Another aggressive send from Ricky Gutierrez. Cody Bellinger fielded the ball as Hassell touched third. Don't think Bellinger thought there was any shot Hassell would go home. He threw it to the cutoff man.

Nice swing by Robert Hassell III, who doubled to open the third inning. The Nationals have a runner in scoring position.

The Nationals should stop running into outs on the bases.
