CJ Abrams went deep twice off Michael Lorenzen — Nos. 23 and 24 — and the second, a two-run shot to right center in the third, gave Washington a lead that lasted one inning. Six lead changes in nine frames is what a night looks like when a starter allows six earned in 3.2 and the home side collects twelve hits. James Wood's 113.1 mph double in the fourth was the hardest ball struck all game, and it covered 290 feet, plated two, and put the Nationals ahead. Colorado answered twice more — in the sixth and the eighth. Washington went down in order in the ninth against Jordan Romano, who needed 11 pitches and struck out two.
