The Nationals and Phillies have had their fair share of strange moments at Citizens Bank Park throughout the years. From forgotten tarps and blowtorches to falling protective netting, these two teams never fail to provide some unexpected entertainment. However, Thursday night’s game lacked any remarkable moments. Instead, it began with an unusual performance from Nationals starter Patrick Corbin, who walked a career-high seven batters but managed to keep the Phillies from scoring any earned runs. Despite Corbin’s efforts, the Nationals ultimately fell to the Phillies with two-run homers from Trea Turner, Nick Castellanos, and J.T. Realmuto. Nationals Manager Dave Martinez emphasized the need for his team to score more runs in this ballpark and for the bottom of the lineup to step up. While the Nationals had their chances against Phillies starter Aaron Nola, they couldn’t capitalize, leaving them with a frustrating loss. Despite the outcome, the Nationals can still find solace in their progress on the road, as they head home after a 4-3 trip. It’s clear that they need to focus on the little things and make every opportunity count if they want to compete with teams like the Phillies who are fighting for a postseason spot.
