 Lane Thomas was the next batter. He had a comebacker to the mound, sharply hit. Lodolo made the play, got Thomas out at first, and then Lodolo settled into a groove. Nationals bullpen put up two zeros from Dylan Floro in the fifth and sixth, but Lodolo, the young lefty, had back-to-back one, two, three innings in the bottom and fifth and the bottom of the sixth. So the game was still 4-3 Cincinnati when Derek Law came on for the first of his two scoreless innings in the top of the seventh. So in the bottom of the seventh, the Nationals had a leadoff base hit from Jacob Young.
