BALTIMORE — The key rally in Sunday’s 3-2 victory over the Orioles may have aptly encapsulated much of what the first half of the Nationals’ season has been about.
Thanks to three consecutive two-out base hits from Clint Robinson, Dan Uggla and Tyler Moore — none of whom were intended to be regulars before the year began — the Nats drove in all the runs runs they would need in the fourth inning to give Max Scherzer some breathing room to seal a win.
There’s no denying that the 2015 season has been headlined thus far by the Herculean efforts of All-Stars Scherzer and Bryce Harper.
