Trea Turner talked after the Washington Nationals’ 6-0 loss in Game 1 of the NLDS matchup with the Los Angeles Dodgers about the team playing a little tight and pressing, especially on offense, in both the Wild Card Game and the series opener on Thursday night.
“I think we’ve kind of done that the last two games, just tried way too hard from the start, especially offensively,” Turner said, after going 2 for 8 with a double and a home run over the first two games of the 2019 postseason.
“I think we’re trying a little too hard,” the 26-year-old shortstop added.
