Nationals vs. Giants Game Highlights (8/10/25) | MLB Highlights

Need a win that goes without saying. And they’ve got a guy who’s won a lot of games making the start today. Justin Verlander. John is on the mound, chance for some history too. He could be the 10th pitcher in the history of the game to reach 3500 career strikeouts. He’s only three away. I expect him to do that today for the Giants will be the 20 year veteran, Justin Verlander veteran, 20 campaigns, age 4265 , 240 pounder. And this will be start number 20 on the year 18 with a 429, a and he could have had at least another five or six wins. He hasn’t had a lot of luck this year but he has been pitching, well, James Wood stands in as Verlander is ready to go and a swing in this game, get a 2 67 25 doubles, four triples, 14 homers and 43 runs batted in. He struck him out with a slider 3499. Wouldn’t that be something if he just went ahead and took care of that in the first inning. So back to back singles with two out runners 1st and 2nd 2 out. And Nathaniel Lowe coming up, he struck him out swinging fastball on the outside at 95 a milestone achievement for Justin Verlander , the 10th pitcher in major league history with 3500 strikeouts. And the fans who realize that give him a standing ovation as he walks off the field and he expresses his appreciation and turn as he doffs his cap, Justin Verlander, another milestone in his brilliant career, Mackenzie Gore. He has 24 start of the season. 99th of his career 137 on the whip. That is everything’s spiked up right when it comes to the numbers and Then the ones that have come down have obviously been the strikeout rate for the base hit to open up the bottom of the first inning. Now, rafael Devers, now Gore delivers waving swing and a miss at a fastball. He struck him out so on elevated fastball, Devers, indecisive did not have a good cut at that and strikes out. It’s a great curveball. He is just dialed in on that curveball down the zone down and in especially and here’s Wilmer Flores. Flores hits one well out to center Jacob Young giving chase onto the track. He’s got it. Add another web gem to the tally for Jacob Young this season, putting his body on the line and make a big play, no score. Here’s Verlander featuring Riley Adams, Brady. Riley Adams rather turns on one to left center and that’ll fall for a hit. Riley continuing to send those offensive numbers upwards. Third hit for the Nationals. It will bring up, swung on line to right toward the line to the corner and is down in a fair ball up against the fence. Adams heading for third, he’ll stop there as Lyle speeds into second base with a double and the Nationals with runners on 2nd and 3rd and nobody out. That’s the 10th 2 base hit in the big leagues for day. And Lyle the Nationals in business here with nobody out in the second Verlander pitches and he struck him out swinging with a curveball curveball and he showed him and he got the punch out. So two out, it’s up to James Wood who struck out swings start the game holds down the ball and kick off the side wall. Two runs come in, James Wood the second with a two run double. He’s back, four extra base hits in the series for wood at its two nothing. Nats Riley scores easy. Daylan scores easy and James Wood out of the box firing away CJ Abrams swing by Abrams and a long drive to right. This is way back. This ball is going, going and it is gone. Goodbye. A home run for CJ Abrams on an 02 pitch. A slider right down the middle and he tattoos it off the landing into the seats for the fans and it dropped back down out of the field. Bang Zoom goes CJ Abrams with his 15th home run of the year and it’s a four run frame for the Nationals. It’s the Nationals for the Giants. Nothing. Three strikeouts. And to end the inning after the leadoff single five of the first two innings for Gore hit a man left for the Giants at the end of two innings. It’s Washington for San Francisco Nothing Ramos next Sunday. So one week from today will be his first big league bobblehead and a good breaking ball down. And in six Ks for Mackenzie Gore Jacob Young for the Nationals to right leadoff single for Jy here in the 4th, 3rd straight inning with the leadoff man aboard for the Nets three. That’s what happens when you get breaking ball. You get the fastball on the inside corner. Josh Bell reaches base with a two outs and a chance at a base hit. His first time up is one for two out to right center. This is going to the gap in the score is young over to third is Bill and Paul Dejo delivers with two down all five runs. The Nats have scored today with two outs. It’s five nothing runner at first one out for chapman Dynamite. Change up for Mackenzie seventh strikeout on the afternoon and he gets chapman for the second out bottom four. Here’s Schmidt groundball back to him the athlete will make the play and yet again allows the leadoff man to reach and keeps him at first. Riley Adams got a base hit to lead off the second inning, got it and he saved the two strikes. Surprise with the slider. A pitch number 11 strikeout number six. And here’s Jung Lee with the Giants trailing five. Nothing. I do anything different. I really think you should stay away. Eight strikeouts for Mackenzie Gore. He’s gotten Jung Holy twice and not in the top of the order. And Elliott Ramos weak grounder left side, Abrams will charge works through it and a strong throw to get Ramos Mackenzie Gore five scoreless innings. The stuff today gross, filthy nasty. Here’s the pitch to Abrams CJ lines into left field for a base hit past the drawn in third baseman Chapman CJ is two for four. He had a home run on an 02 pitch in the second inning and muscle this one up, the middle. Abrams will turn for third and they’re at the corners with two down. Josh Bell, three hits and a walk today. Runners at the corners for Paul the young young out to left center yet again. He’s going to add on another bell will go first to third as Abrams touches home, Paul the young three hits today. Five hits in the series and it’s six nothing nats. So Mackenzie Gore to face the beef Devers, Adamus and Flores got him slider down and away make it nine strikeouts for Mackenzie this afternoon and Mackenzie Gore trying to go six innings for the first time in his last five starts swing and a miss, he struck him out on a slider. Gore has 10 strikeouts in six shutout innings. His third double digit strikeout game this year and the 10th of his big league career terrific performance of bounce back performance for mckenzie Gore. Here’s Jacob Young, the ninth place hitter ball to third. It’s booted by chapman. All things. Chapman could not come up with it. So Adam slides to the second and Young is a at first five time gold glove winner, matt Chapman is charged with his 12th error of the season. Here’s James Woods has to face maybe the most dangerous nats hitter with two on and two out. A line drive left center field that’s a base hit up the gap. Adams the ball rolls all the way to the wall. Young is scampering around third and he will score and James Wood is at second with a two run double. It’s the nationals eight and the Giants nothing. All eight runs today have been scored with two outs and James Wood has driven in half of them two doubles, four RBIs for James Wood and there is a new pitcher , although he’s not usually a pitcher, it’s Christian Ks and Jung Lee on the and he slides and makes the catch and Christian Carr says, thank you very much tucked by, er, a Adams waits. Well, he does everything right and it winds up with the little bird left on the, right now. Here is Jacob Young and a little flare that’s gonna be caught and that will end the inning christian card. He is getting a standing ovation as he leads to two out. Nobody on here in the bottom of the ninth and the pitch swing and a pop up by Flores playable Lowe in from first down the line. Adams the catcher there, they collide and Adams has the ball. I believe Adams was calling for it all the way. And Then Lowe came in from behind him, bumped him and they both went down and that’s how this game ends a curly w in the books as Riley Adams holds on being bumped and knocked down by Nathaniel. Oh, and the nationals shut out the Giants in San francisco eight to nothing.
