The Nationals topped San Diego 8-7 to end their six game losing streak. Al & Mark discuss Alcides Escobar's contributions so far this month, as he was the hero in the late innings for the victory. 

(7:52) Juan Soto had a go ahead HR in the bottom of the 8th, his third of the series. Mark takes another bow for his July 4th prediction that if Soto entered the Derby, it would lead to a Post All Star Break power surge. 

(18:30) Max Scherzer had a good outing, but couldn't hold onto an early 4-0 lead as he allowed a pair of homers. Why hasn't Max looked like his usual self since returning from the IL?

(23:10) The "Varsity" Bullpen was back in action, but neither Daniel Hudson nor Brad Hand pitched well. How much of this was a result of rust?
