Cade Cavalli delivered an impressive performance, pitching six strong innings to help the Washington Nationals secure an 8-0 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Luis García Jr. contributed significantly with a two-run homer during a pivotal six-run seventh inning that broke open the game. This win allowed the Nationals to claim two out of three games in the series, marking their fourth consecutive road series victory. Cavalli, now 7-4, effectively mixed his fastball and knuckle-curve, striking out eight and allowing only four hits. The Nationals initially took the lead in the fifth inning, and the Rockies’ bullpen struggled, giving up seven runs. CJ Abrams had a standout game with four hits. The Nationals will face Arizona next, while the Rockies head to Milwaukee.
QUESTION: How might the Nationals’ recent success on the road influence their confidence and performance in upcoming games?
