Question...

Why does the boxscore show 3 ER against Malone? He left with the bases loaded in the 5th (one out)… Stammen got the first batter to pop out and threw the ball away to the next batter… then that batter got out. Shouldn’t that be an unearned run?

Overall… great game Nats… Praying for 81 wins!!!

Another Question... I'll stop after this one

If we tie the dodgers record-wise… how do they determine who gets the higher draft pick next year? Are head-to-head matchups factored into that decision?
