Aníbal Sánchez takes first L since May 10th in Nationals’ 8-4 loss in finale with the Mets...

Aníbal Sánchez threw 94 pitches in five innings last time out before taking on the New York Mets on Wednesday, giving up three hits, four walks, and two runs, receiving no decision in what ended up a 7-6 win over the Miami Marlins.

“My early command with every hitter wasn’t there,” Sánchez told reporters, as quoted by MASN’s Byron Kerr.

“I tried to fight with every at-bat. So, when I got in a situation with runners in scoring position just tried to get an out. I don’t want to leave the game with a lot of scores.
