The Nats were trounced 13-1 on Wednesday night by visiting Colorado. Before diving into the rout, Mark & Al briefly revel in the 1,000th edition of this podcast.

(07:30) Blake Butera called out his team's lack of effort after the loss.

(10:00) Andres Chaparro got a rare start at 3B and homered in the bottom of the 2nd. However, Chaparro did not hustle on a double by Jose Tena with two outs in the 4th and this was something that Butera pointed out afterwards.

(18:00) CJ Abrams originally was slated for SS but ended up being the DH after pregame workouts did not go smoothly on the ankle.

(23:00) Matt Waldron started the bullpen game as he recently joined Washington. This is the 3rd MLB team that Waldron has pitched for this season (Toronto & San Diego).

(26:00) Poor outing for Will Dion as he allowed four runs in the 5th and Colorado never looked. Luis Perales had a disappointing MLB debut as he gave up a Grand Slam in the 7th.

(34:00) Jake Irvin will take the mound on Thursday afternoon as the Nationals look to split the series.
