Hopes were high for today’s game. Luke Weaver was coming off the best outing of his Diamondbacks career and Nationals starter Eric Fedde came in with an ERA over 8.00. Since it was a day game and a lot of people might have missed this contest, I’ll go with the inning by inning recap style today

The game started off quietly enough. Following K’s from Tim Locastro and Kole Calhoun, Josh VanMeter reached second base on an error by center fielder Andrew Stephenson, but was stranded when David Peralta tapped out weakly to second base. Fedde threw 21 pitches in the inning.
