WASHINGTON -- Chad Green spun around the mound and stared at the Nationals Park outfield for a few moments in the sixth inning on Monday, processing the fact that Juan Soto had again put the Yankees in a hole.
Soto had just belted his sixth career home run and his third homer against the Yankees over the past five days. Last Wednesday, Soto hit two home runs at Yankee Stadium. The 19-year-old's two-run dinger produced the only runs scored in the Yankees' 5-3 loss to the Nationals on Monday, which resumed in the sixth inning with the score tied at 3 after being suspended due to rain on May 15.
