Charlie Slowes' Best Calls

The Washington Nationals bounced back from a heartbreaking series against
the Philadelphia Phillies by taking two out of three from the Baltimore Orioles,
and they did so on the back of an incandescent Luis Garcia Jr. The slugging
first baseman has six homers in his last six games and seems to have unlocked
a level in his game that the organization has been waiting for. Can he sustain it?
Will another team covet his services at the trade deadline? The District Territory
crew discusses that and more on Monday's episode.

Standings & Outro

The Washington Nationals became the first team in MLB history to
allow go-ahead home runs in the ninth inning of three consecutive
games in losses to the Philadelphia Phillies. The latest might have
been the most crushing, as Bryce Harper took Gus Varland deep as
a crowd chanted obscenities Harper’s way. The District Territory crew
talks about the bullpen, what went wrong, how we got here, how they
can fix it and who to trust.

Giveaway & Standings Update

The answer: It is even more complicated than you might imagine, as
the Washington Nationals first two games against the Philadelphia
Phillies revealed. They have an asset in Foster Griffin who they probably
can't make the postseason without. They have a bullpen that needs more
reinforcements than might be achievable at the deadline. We talk through
it all after a rollercoaster first two games against the Phillies.
