Dusty wants better baserunning from Nats
Francisco Cervelli fires to second to catch Brian Goodwin straying off the bag, ending the top of the 7th inningPITTSBURGH -- Brian Goodwin's costly baserunning gaffe remained a conversation piece Thursday before the Nationals wrapped up their three-game series against the Pirates at PNC Park.
Goodwin, a rookie outfielder and former first-round Draft pick, was picked off second base after he doubled home a run to cut the Nats' deficit to 3-1 in the seventh inning against Gerrit Cole and the Pirates on Wednesday. That would be Washington's only run in an eventual 6-1 loss.
