Erick Fedde went five innings in his first start of the 2019 campaign, after working in relief in his first five appearances of the season for Washington.
Fedde, 26, and a 2014 Nationals’ 1st Round pick, held the New York Mets to one run on four hits in that outing, receiving no decision in what ended up a 6-5 loss in Citi Field.
Nats’ skipper Davey Martinez said after the game that he liked what he saw from Fedde, but he limited him to 61 pitches in his first starting assignment.
