The Nationals¡¯ bullpen has been so bad recently that their announcers have just
stopped talking after opponent home runs (more on that shortly).Washington
bettors did get a boost in the top of the seventh inning when a Juan Soto
two-run shot to left gave the Nationals a 4-2 lead. They then had a chance to
add an insurance run in the top of the eighth with men on first and third with
only one out. However, Paul DeJong not only robbed Bryce Harper of a hit with a
beautiful
stab

he also turned two to end the inning (more on DeJong later).>> Download

immediately cut into the 4-2 deficit in the home half of the eighth inning, as
Jedd Gyorko led off the inning with a solo shot. The Cardinals then put two men
on base with only one out for the scorching-hot Matt Carpenter. You can guess
what happened next.Absolute silence from Washington¡¯s announcers after
Carpenter¡¯s three-run shot. They have simply had enough of their bullpen. But it
gets even better.Washington actually found a way to tie the game in the top of
the ninth. That gave us another golden moment of silence after DeJong hit a
walk-off homer to give the Cardinals their sixth straight win.Who wants to bet
the Nats tomorrow? CHICAGO (AP) ¡ª Left-hander Jon Lester was put on the 10-day
injured list by the Chicago Cubs because of a strained left hamstring.Injured
while scoring from second base on Ben Zobrist¡¯s single in Monday¡¯s home opener,
the Cubs¡¯ ace will miss at least one turn. The five-time All- Star is 1-0 with a
2.57 ERA in three starts after going 18-6 with a 3.32 ERA last year.Chicago put
Lester on the IL retroactive to Tuesday.¡°We¡¯re just going to play this as we go

Mike
Foltynewicz Jersey ,¡± manager Joe Maddon said. ¡°Of course he¡¯s going to
miss his next start, but beyond that we¡¯re just going to keep an open
mind.¡±Right-hander Tyler Chatwood will start in Lester¡¯s place on Sunday against
the Los Angeles Angels.Lefty reliever Tim Collins was recalled from Triple-A
Iowa on Wednesday. The 29-year-old is 0-0 with a 3.38 ERA in three games for
Iowa. He pitched in 38 games for Washington last season.
