Trevor Williams’ seventh start of the season with the Nationals was a bit of a dud. Over the course of just 4 1⁄3 IP the veteran right-hander gave up seven hits, two home runs, and five runs total, all earned, in what ended up a comeback 9-8 win over Arizona’s D-backs on the road in Chase Field.
“I wish I went a little deeper, and I wanted to be the stopper today,” Williams said, as quoted by MASN’s Mark Zuckerman after the win, which came after back-to-back losses in their first two with the Diamondbacks.
