The Washington Nationals got shut out by the New York Mets by the score of 6-0 on Tuesday night. The Nationals hitters just couldn’t get anything going against Mike Pelfrey and the Mets relievers. With the loss, the Nationals record drops to 4-10 on the season.
Odalis Perez drops his record to 0-3 on the season as he picked up the loss. Perez pitched six inning and gave up two earned runs. He was pretty wild as he gave up four walks as well. It wasn’t all on Perez however as the Nationals bullpen really pitched badly. Ray King and Luis Ayala gave up an earned run each and Joel Hanrahan gave up two runs in his inning of action.
Overall, it was just a bad day for the entire Nationals lineup. We will see if they can turn around and pick up a win in their next game.
