Washington Nationals vs Houston Astros – FULL GAME HIGHLIGHTS | July 29, 2025 MLB Season

Nationals 2-1 win last night. It was the Nationals third straight win as they won the last two games in Minnesota. Runner on the go. Swinging a miss. The throw by Yiner. Close but safe at second base. All coming over from San Diego. They have him picked off. Short’s got him in a run down. He goes to Dubon. Right back to Short and Abrams is out. Chase and Alexander and the Astros infield. pick off CJ Abrams. Nice to be able to pick up that out on the pace pass by being able to that had a lot of the plate and that’s a called third strike. Alexander picks up his first strike and hitting fast balls in the zone. There you go. Change up. Change up to end the inning inning to give the Astros a one- nothing lead. Unfortunately, that would be their only run of the game. Treal pops one up on the infield and CJ Abrams makes the catch for the first out. Brooklyn or no sleep till the trade deadline. Whatever works. That ball hits to right. Playable for Dalon Lyle. He’ll put it away. Al Tube retired for the second towards the line and right. It’s going to be a fair ball. It’ll bounce around in the corner. Pressure Walker being waved around. Here comes the relay throw by Garcia. Walker is safe. RBI double for Cam Smith. Aos have now scored first in back-to-back games. And they actually get a first innitting run. Jacob Melton goes after the first pitch and bounces one back to the mound. And that’ll be the final out of the inning up the middle, but Zack Shorts right there. Couple of hops and makes the play for out number one. Twice and then get ready to go. There we go. The change up plays against lefties. As plumber said, that’s three strikeouts for Jason Alexander. Oh, broken bat. Who wants it? Short’s going to charge. Does he have enough time? Yes, he does. Zack Short throws out Riley Adams on a close play. Starts as a third baseman and takes that pitch at the bottom of the zone for a called third strike. That’s the first strike out. There it was. Got the fast ball, missed it. That’ll be the second strike out for Srooka. Two outs in the inning and the ground ball to the right side. The Astros will not score a run here after two hits to start the inning. We’ll head to the third. It’s a one- nothing game. And in doing so, took a sweeper for called third. Abrams goes again and has another stolen base. So, he’s two for two tonight on the ground towards Walker. He’ll make sure he takes care of it himself. Gets James Wood for the second out. And Abrams moves over to third. Hits this one to right on a change up and Cam Smith will watch this one go. An O2 pitch that Luis Garcia GS into the stands in right field for a two-run home run. Hits it sharply, but Short is there. He’ll take it to the bag himself for the final out of the inning. When I got traded from Houston to Tampa, that was a little different story. I wasn’t as excited. Banded about as potential trade figures at the deadline as Cam who doubled in a run his first time up strikes out here and Sroka has a 1, two, three, third. Two, those three teams to their credit, every guy in those clubouses that I went into were awesome. They they welcomed me in, shook my hand and said, “Let’s go win some ball games.” Because of the injured list, have been up at the big league level. This ball hit high and deep to right field, tearing towards the bullpen, and it’s gone. Niner Diaz connects on number 14. And the game’s tied up at two. Oh, somebody find the barkeep. I’m parched. Little extra on that Yiner bomb. He can hit some majestic shots the other way. And that one was in the air a long time. That’s hit hard down the right field line. And it’s a fair ball. And it’s into the crowd. That’ll be an automatic double for Abrams. August 30th of 2022. Abrams takes third base. Popped high in the air. Playable. Who wants it? Tal or Melton. It’s a center fielder Jacob Melton who puts it away. Stranding a runner on third. Diamond backs way back in 2015. Caught by Abrams who’s doing a little bit of everything. Taking one away from Jos Altve. Abrams has been on base three times and has three. Humble trying to break this two- two tie and he does with a base hit up the middle. Walker coming around third. The throw by Young not in time. Astros lead three-2. The iriner pops one into center field. Playable for Young. AOS are going to take the lead in the inning. Do with a walk against Braomemer Valdez last night. This ball sent deeper than Cam was playing. And now he’ll drift towards the line. And he’ll put it away. Got him. Susa. Four batters. Phase four batters retired. The last two via strikeout. Clean inning here in the six. Tacho’s lead 3-2. Duban stealing and he’s going to get in there without a throw. Mauricio three for three in steals this year. Wheel play is on here as they crash hard. This one’s down to third and Duban. What a job Duban did. He was almost at the bag at third. Duban on third. Whitam on second. Trema on first. And a base hit through the middle in the score. Dub bond with him headed back to the bag. So he’ll have to stop at third. Jose Alt makes it a four to2 game. Now Christian Walker bats with the base is loaded. He has a base hit in the score with him. Here comes Trel. He’s being waved around. He’s going to score. Astros with a big inning now lead it six-2. Nothing but singles in this inning. And now a little chopper towards the mound. Playing it is the relie. It’s the reliever Laura. He throws it away in the score out to Walker to third, Cam Smith to second. 7-2 Stros. That’ll do it for the Astros in the seventh. [Applause] Got him. Jacob Young goes down on strikes. Brian King picks up his first strikeout. Pitch at bat against Barcelo Cologne off the glove of Zack Short. Good effort, but it still gets into center field. Abrams continues his perfect night. He’s now been on base all four times. Single, double, walk, and now another single for space. And that ball smoked into center field. That’ll be down for a hit. Playing it on a hop. Cam Smith. Nationals have a run here in the seventh on the RBI single by Wood. his team leading 71st RBI of the season. Papa beyond the infield. Shallow center. Short drifting out. Chaz McCormack calls him off and Chaz makes the play for the final out of the inning. That one toward second. Short hopped and Yiner steps on the bag. Safe at first. Yiner’s got to go back to second. Oh, thank goodness for two. Ground ball left side should score a run. They make the play to first. Treml out at first. In to score is Yiner Diaz. And the Astros now lead seven to three. That’s a looper beyond second, but Garcia Junior’s there to make the catch for the final out. That’s going to be a base hit into right center field. Bell being waved around. He’ll score a run. Lyall heading to second. The throw by McCormack. Not in time. It’s now a seven to four game. Had a struck out against Abrau last year on the fast ball up. This time he chases a slider down and away. That’ll be a strikeout for Abrau. The guy who leads all relievers in strikeouts. Picks up tonight after 19 last night. Got him. A Breu backto back strikeout. Stranding a couple of runners in scoring position. We head to the bottom of the eighth in a 7-4 game. And the total hits last night were eight as Cam goes down on strikes with a called third strike here for the second. Bat is shattered. And Rutled is going to make two plays in the inning. That one a little easier than the Christian Walker play. His inning of work. He gets a quick strike out here. Three pitch strikeout for her. Abrams down for the first time tonight. One away in the ninth. Got him. Backto back strikeouts for Josh her. That’s four in a row sent down with the strikeout between Abrau and her. Got him. Strikes out the side and closes the door to finish the end of a fivegame losing streak. Astros win for the first time on this home stand. They get to shake hands here at home for just the second
