tonight buddy black manages his 1,1 159th game with the Rockies and that ties him all times with Clint hurle on the mount it’s Mitchell Parker the 24-year-old Lefty faced the Rockies in Denver June 22nd no decision gave up four runs in six Innings with a career-high tying eight strikeouts Charlie Blackman steps in facing Parker for the first time and the value of getting ahead kind of challenged him away easy Fly ball James Wood and that’s how the night gets underway Ezekiel toar is out on one pitch here two out of the top of the first inning here’s Bretton Doyle this is line to right and it’s not handled out there by call he rolls around Doyle into second with a double Alex call going out into right center made a heck of an effort at that ball but couldn’t secure it and Brenton Doyles into second with his 21st double McMahon steps in at 247 swing in a miss and down goes McMahon busted a fast ball in on him and Strikes him out up and in with a heater and so Doyle a two out double he’s left at second we go to the bottom of the first the Rockies nothing the Nationals coming up Nationals will come to bat against 26-year-old rer Tanner Gordon from Champagne Illinois finished his college baseball at the University of Indiana then was drafted in the sixth round by the Braves here is James Wood hitting 277 in 43 games up the middle to his right Rogers can’t get a handle and now the ball gets away and wood will make the turn and head for second has all the looks of an infield hit and a throwing error by Brendan Rogers who was out of time and probably should have held on to it so with two outs a chance for the gats to score like the Rockies had in the top of the inning but couldn’t do so and this is in the air to Doyle and Center makes the catch and no damage done so that is a leadoff single for Rogers in the shortstop hole so he is aboard with the Rockies second hit so one down and Nolan Jones is the hitter that’s a good job of jamage right there long way for Garcia acatic Luis Garcia made that play Closer Than it appeared he had any chance to at first base so a nice looking 64 right there reaching out and touching one to Center is back and here comes Jacob young and that will end the top half of the second inning Tana runs well good play by McMahon but the ball was hit so softly really no chance that’s an infield single it’s a runner at first base the DH now andrees chaparo is the hitter TAA on the move and that’s perfect right behind him it’s a good thing it didn’t hit him it almost picked him off and the Nets with a hit and run and the NS have Runners on first and third with one out so here’s Joey Gallow Gallow line drive to right that’s a base hit it’s behind Beck and two Nets will score chaparo headed toward third and he’s going to get a green light and the throw of the plate is in time out at the plate brandan Rogers an absolute bullet to Drew Romo to cut down chaparo the relay kind of executed perfectly to be to be able to get the runner at home plate three and two young Romo to the outside corner hard ground ball diving stop Rogers from his knees out at first have an inning you tell me have an inning that looked like a base hit to right and Brendan Rogers made a fantastic defensive play that’s settle for one here’s Ezekiel Tovar popped out to the second baseman back in the first inning no balls one strike two Ezekiel Tovar down to third backing up was TAA now pivoting Garcia n Go Around the Horn and turn a very nice 543 double play long throw really nice play by the Nets right there to end that inning the Nationals have three infield hits in the first three Innings against Tanner Gordon here’s James Wood James had an infield hit three pitch and James Wood almost picked off Alex call he’s going to head for third that throw will get there late and the Nationals have Runners at the corners and now the Nets can get that second run that they really need here so we had a little Looper shallow center it’s falling it’s going to dunk in for a base hit call back to third now we’ll come in to score Nationals lead two nothing bloop hit to Center for Ruiz so here is Luis Garcia that ball is hammered deep Right Center heading for the guo sign see you later how about that for adding on some runs for Garcia number 15 and this is a five nothing game first walk issued by Gordon and if you asked him I’m sure he’d say that’s the last guy wanted to walk Jacob is 28 for 34 and there he goes it’s a bullet looks like he beat it and Jacob young is one steel away from 30 now and for the NS a major league leading 171 it’ll be a two- two to call it’s on the way and it’s poked on the ground right side backhand sprawling stop for toia the pitcher didn’t cover so toia gets up slides into the bag for the out- on call over to third goes young young with two outs at third CJ Abrams and the change up is popped up Shallow Center Tovar goes out Doyle will call him off it’s a scoreless fourth inning for Tanner Gordon we go to the last of the fifth and Nations leaving the Rockies five to nothing as the Rockies bring on 27-year-old right-hander Noah Davis James Wood leads off gets under one high into the air heading to the scoreboard and making an adjustment and missing it is back wood will cruise into second and we’ve got a lead off double here and Wood’s three for three so Runners first and third two out of the batter will be Andre chaparo right-handed Herer Runners lead first and third taina runs from first chaparo swinging a miss and now wood too far off third is caught catcher throws to McMahon the third baseman back to the catcher back to McMahon puts the tag on wood and that will end the inning fell for the pump fake yep rocki’s going order in the sixth inning so Mitchell Parker is through six shutout Innings here tonight he pitches with a 5 nothing lead as we go to the bottom of the sixth Nationals lead the Rockies five nothing batter is Andre’s chaparo and that’s a fair Ball by chaparo into the left field Corner his first three Big League hits were doubles and now he’s got number four here’s Jacob young he walked his last time up stole a base over that’s going to get through Jacob young there he goes out to right field strong throw home cut off and the Nat’s lead 6 nothing on Young’s 28th run batted in seventh inning the rocky scoreless they have but three hits in this ball game against starter Mitchell Parker who’s back on the mound again for his team having thrown just 70 pitches he’s been outstanding and he’s been efficient at the same time here’s Ryan McMahon looking to bunt he bunts it up the first base side it gets past the pitcher and he’s safe at first base so that’s the fourth Rockies hit their first hit since the third inning it brings in Brendan Rogers and that’s toward the Gap in right center field that’s going to run all the way to the wall McMahon to third Warren schaer’s going to send him to the house and the Rockies are on the board runs scoring double Brendan Rogers Joe loura for the Nets has made his return to the big Club here in the last few days second appearance one hit one inning with a strikeout so far two outs Tovar who’s over for three steps up ready for pitch number 12 it’s on the way and he swings and misses at a change up to strike him out and end the inning 12 pitches to get Ezekiel Tovar ninth inning here at Nationals Park Nationals in control of this one right now 6 to one that’s with a run of the second four in the third big blow of Luis Garcia three- runer and in another run of the six Rockies they’re only run of the seventh Mitchell Parker seven strong Innings allowed that one run joela sorso one two 38 and now it’ll be terer rainy on for the ninth final hope for Colorado Michael toia lifted to left Woods going to cruise to this one he will put it away and so will vaness one of our best pitched games by a starter this year Mitchell Parker rewarded with a seventh win the Nationals on the field to celebrate a victory a curly W’s in the bcks the final score the Washington National Six the Colorado Rockies won
