The Nationals rallied again in the 9th in Arizona and this time they were rewarded with a 9-8 victory. Mark (Live from Phoenix) & Al have another comeback to discuss; with Joey "Four Bags" Meneses being the hero this time around by connecting on a 3 run HR. Washington is now 10-9 since the 4-11 start to the season. Chase Field is also the venue where Meneses hit two HRs vs. USA in the World Baseball Classic in March FWIW.
(9:00) Luis Garcia had a solid series and hit 2nd in the lineup all weekend. Garcia reached base four times on Sunday; including a lead-off double to put the pressure on the Diamondbacks.
(19:30) Trevor Williams had a mediocre outing, which included a run scoring balk. Hunter Harvey was the star of the day on the mound as he notched his first career save to preserve the comeback win.

(31:10) Carter Kieboom was optioned to AAA Rochester after returning from "Tommy John" Surgery.
