Jake Irvin in his 2nd big league start SHOVED once again for the Washington Nationals, beating the San Francisco Giants by a score of 5-1. Irvin went 6 1/3rd with 4 hits, and looked like a season pro. Ryan breaks down the game, which also had some questionable decision making by 3B coach Gary DiSarcina. But most importantly, Jake Irvin is proving to us that he belongs in the rotation, and he=is stuff plays in the big leagues. Ryan then turns the attention to the defense, as this Nats team on paper is just a much better product on paper, particularly the defense. What has been the biggest difference so far in the infield? Dominic Smith, your time has come... Lastly Ryan previews Patrick Corbin on the mound, and talks about what he needs to see from the lefty to get a win tonight for the good guys.
