Strange day at the office for Washington Nationals starter Cade Cavalli. Pitching against the division rival Miami Marlins, Cavalli came out firing, throwing four hitless innings while striking out eight batters. Unfortunately, it seems a comebacker off the leg will end his day prematurely.
It’s certainly a good sign for Cavalli and the Nationals that he managed to make it through the fourth inning after being hit, and with their season all but over as the Wild Card slips away, they can afford to play it safe if needed.
Cavalli was replaced by reliever Erik Tolman.
