Washington Nationals: Starting pitching continues to flail in loss

It felt like the Washington Nationals needed a strong finish heading to the All-Star break to get back in the playoff hunt. But in their ten games against sub .500 teams, they’ve gone 5-5.

Their starting rotation has been awful lately, and Austin Voth was the latest man up, who couldn’t get it done. He gave up seven runs, on nine hits, walking three and striking out three.

Voth did actually have three very good innings, where he allowed just one hit and one walk between them. So there’s something to work on.
