“It stings, every time we lose it stings,” Davey Martinez said after the Washington Nationals’ seventh straight loss and 12th loss in 14 games this month, but the manager stressed that he continues to be impressed with the effort from his club even if the results aren’t there.
“But like I said before these guys are — they’re just playing hard, they’re not giving up,” he added.
“And you know, honestly for me it’s fun to watch some of these guys getting an opportunity to play, and Carter [Kieboom] today, a couple hits, Luis [García] battling, battling, a couple hits, couple nice plays, these guys are all — [Riley] Adams today catching well.
