Max Scherzer was dominant again last night. Juan Soto hit one ridiculous pitch.

It's been a rainy week in D.C. and there is the threat of more inclement weather this weekend, and the Washington Nationals just released some bad news about Matt Wieters.

It's been an interesting week in the nation's capital with Bryce Harper leading off for the Washington Nationals, Wilmer Difo getting on base at an impressive pace, and the Nats sweeping the Pirates in a four-game set in Nationals Park. Good starting, runs galore and more. Is this turning into Davey Martinez's team? Will the Nats get their injured players back... just in time to ruin the chemistry they've developed? Kidding about that part. We miss Daniel Murphy's swing. We'll talk about it all at 6:00 PM EDT Nats Nightly... Weekly.

Nats Nightly Weekly Returns: Discussing Nationals after 19 games, Davey Martinez

Mike Rizzo and Kris Kline always said Alex Meyer had potential, and the Washington Nationals’ 2011 1st Round pick showed his former organization what he had in a 7-0 win for the Los Angeles Angels tonight in Anaheim. Gio Gonzalez struggled with his command early, and gave up a big home run late, giving up four of the seven runs the Nats surrendered as the Nationals' six-game winning streak came to an end with just the second shutout loss of the season for the NL East division leaders. 

Nats Nightly: Nationals shut out by Alex Meyer and the Angels, 7-0

The Washington Nationals took their third straight from the Cincinnati Reds and their fourth straight overall in a 14-4 win in Great American Ball Park. Daniel Murphy homered twice in the win and the Nationals hit five home runs total, knocking Homer Bailey out early and cruising to another win. Tanner Roark put together a solid start, though the defense wasn't great behind him, but there was plenty of offense to make up for that. Series finale in GABP tomorrow afternoon at 12:35 PM EDT. 

Nats Nightly: Nationals 14-4 over Reds for third straight in GABP...

Max Scherzer tossed six scoreless innings and Anthony Rendon jacked two home runs, one of them a grand slam in the Washington Nationals’ 10-7 win over the Cincinnati Reds tonight in Great American Ball Park. A big seven-run seventh busted things open in the second game of four in GABP and the Nationals improved to 54-36 on the season with their second straight win over the Reds. Scherzer reached double-digits in Ks again, btw, and don't ask about Austin Adams' MLB debut...

Nats Nightly: Nationals win big, 10-7 over Reds; Anthony Rendon homers twice

Bryce Harper provided the power and Gio Gonzalez shut the Cincinnati Reds out over 8 1⁄3 IP in what ended up a 5-0 win for the Washington Nationals in the series and second-half opener in Great American Ball Park. Gonzalez allowed just four hits and got 13 ground ball outs from Reds' hitters in an impressive performance, and Harper hit his 21st and 22 home runs of the season to get off to a good start out of the All-Star Break. Nationals now 53-36.

Nats Nightly: Nationals 5-0 over Reds in GABP; Gio Gonzalez dominates in Cincy

Max Scherzer put together another solid start, but Rangers’ journeyman Austin Bibens-Dirkx matched him through seven and Texas went up in the eighth and took three straight in Washington, D.C. Scherzer collected his 2,000th K this afternoon, and reached double-digits in Ks for the fourth straight outing, but the Nats' offense struggled to figure Bibens-Dirkx out in what ended up a 5-1 loss. Up next, three with the Atlanta Braves in the nation's capital. Nationals now 38-24. Stephen Strasburg will try to right the ship tomorrow...

Nats Nightly: Nationals drop third straight, 5-1, get swept by Rangers...

Ryan Zimmerman broke up a 3-3 tie with a three-run home run in the eighth. #TKCHZ! Tanner Roark gave up four runs in 7 2/3 innings of work in Oakland as the Washington Nationals took 2 of 3 from the A's and improved to 5-1 six games into their nine-game, three-city road trip, which continues in LA tomorrow night. Koda Glover finished off the eighth when Roark ran into trouble and Matt Wieters and Michael A. Taylor homered in the ninth, 11-10 final. Nationals now 35-20.

Joe Ross struggled again and the Washington Nationals had their four-game win streak come to an end in a 10-4 loss to the A’s in Oakland this afternoon. Ross went just three innings in his third start back in the rotation after a stint in Triple-A. Jacob Turner did the yeoman's work, but got knocked around in his third inning on the mound as the Athletics ran away with this one and set up a rubber match tomorrow in Oakland Coliseum. Nationals now 34-20.

Nats Nightly: Nationals' 4-game win streak ends with 10-4 loss to A's in Oakland

Max Scherzer reached 100 Ks on the season on his 100th pitch of the night on Wednesday night as the Nationals swept the San Francisco Giants with a 3-1 win in AT&T Park. Scherzer went the distance for his first complete game of the season and the seventh of his career and the Nationals took all three from the Giants to cap off a series that started with the face of the Nats' franchise getting plunked by a Giants' reliever. 33-19 overall for the Nationals, who get a day off before playing the A's in Oakland on Friday.

Nats Nightly: Max Scherzer throws complete game, Nationals sweep Giants in AT&T

There were no purpose pitches or even unintentional HBPs in the Washington Nationals' second game of three with the San Francisco Giants in AT&T Park, instead the Nats beat the Giants, 6-3, to win the series before the finale tomorrow night. Gio Gonzalez put together a solid start and the Nationals' hitters knocked Jeff Samardzija out early and cruised to a relatively drama-free victory. Max Scherzer is up next in the third of three with the Giants. Nationals now 32-19.

Nats Nightly: Nationals retaliate with 6-3 win over Giants in AT&T...

Washington's Nationals took 2 of 3 from the Seattle Mariners in D.C, but dropped the series finale and had their three-game winning streak snapped in a 4-2 loss. Gio Gonzalez put together a solid start, but exited early and Jacob Turner gave up a big three-run HR by Nelson Cruz that lifted the Mariners from a 2-0 deficit and Robinson Cano drove in a run to provide some insurance in what ended up a two-run win. Nationals now 28-18. Up next, three with San Diego starting tomorrow night.
