Washington drops series opener at Miami

Chris Graham

nationals_logoStop us if you’ve heard this story before. The Washington Nationals bullpen once again faltered in a 2-1 loss at Miami on Friday night.

The Nats (71-69) have now lost four in a row.

A Miguel Rojas sacrifice fly off Casey Janssen (1-5, 5.14 ERA) broke a 1-1 tie in the seventh inning. Washington went down 1-2-3 in the eighth, and had one glimmer of hope in the ninth, when Dan Uggla walked with two outs, but Jayson Werth flew out to left to end it.
