Washington Nationals’ lefty Josh Rogers talked after making his first start with the club back on September 4th, about work he did with catcher Keibert Ruiz when the two were together at Triple-A Rochester as a key to a successful run, which resulted in a call-up back to the big leagues three years after he debuted in the majors with Baltimore’s Orioles in 2018 and then injured his elbow in 2019.
Ruiz joined the organization in a trade deadline deal as one of four prospects the Nationals received in return for Max Scherzer and Trea Turner.
