Done in by Jacob deGrom, the Nationals sputter against the Rangers
Briefly

The Washington Nationals faced a tough loss to the Texas Rangers, becoming increasingly frustrated with their offensive performance. Despite a noteworthy moment when Alex Call walked, the team ultimately struggled to capitalize on opportunities, resulting in limited runs. Manager Dave Martinez emphasized the inconsistency of being aggressive while pitching in the strike zone and noted the team’s recent decline in scoring. With well-performing hitters, CJ Abrams and James Wood, currently struggling, the Nationals find themselves unable to replicate previous successes, drawing only seven walks across six games in June thus far.
Just chasing a little bit, plus they’re attacking our hitters. We talked earlier about being aggressive. I want these guys to be aggressive but be aggressive in the strike zone.
I think they’re giving us the right pitches to hit. We just got to execute a little better.
