ArrooooOOO! Jayson Werth (+5.7%) doubles in a run later in the 4th to double the Nats' lead to "not enough" (+10.0%).
- Not a meltdown: Blake Treinen (-0.4%) is the 2nd-most-effective Nats reliever today, getting an out in the 7th but allowing a runner.
- Still not a metldown (just barely): Felipe Rivero (-5.9%) walks a batter and records no outs after Treinen, missed a meltdown by 0.1%.
- Definitely meltdowns: Casey Janssen (-22.3%) lets in an inherited runners to put the Nats behind, while Matt Thornton (-10.8%) lets in two more to put the game out of reach.
