In loss, Nationals also find hope BY ADAM KILGORE On Friday night, the Washington


Nationals’ offensive impotence pro- duced another loss and provided an indirect measure of hope. For 51/3 innings, the Nationals flailed at the pitches of Jaime Garcia, the potential NationalLeague Rookie of theYear, a left-hander who, at age 22, had the ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow replaced, the procedure com- monly known as Tommy John sur- gery. On the day the Nationals lost


Stephen Strasburg for at least a year, they were shut down, in a 4-2 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals,


Garcia


showed the 22,871 in attendance at Nationals Park first-hand that there is life after Tommy John surgery. The Nationals didn’t score until


the eighth, but then they scared the Cardinals in the ninth. They scored one run in the inning off Ryan Franklin and then sent Roger Berna- dina—who had launched a game-ty- ing, ninth-inning home run off Franklin the previous night—to the plate as the tying run. Bernadina walked, and so Ivan Rodriguez walked into the batter’s box as the winning run. When he rolled weakly to second, though, it was over. After their near miss, the Nation-


als could curse the chance they wasted early. Garcia, now 24, was anything but dominant. He allowed


eight hits and four walks before he left with the bases loaded. His ERA fell to 2.33, in part because the Nationals stranded11menin the first six innings and 14 for the game. The Cardinals took the lead when


Albert Pujols clobbered a home run for the second straight game, a solo shot in the first inning off Scott Olsen. Olsen, who threw 105 pitches over five innings, would not allow another earned run, but he came undone by a pair of errors in the second inning. First, Adam Dunn bobbled a


bounding groundball and then rushed a throw to Olsen that bounced into the camera well. Rodri- guez attempted to pick off the runner at second base, but his throw skipped past Ian Desmond into center field. By the time the debris cleared, the Cardinals had taken a 3-0 lead. The Nationals’ best chance to


make it a game came in the sixth. With the bases loaded and one out, pinch-hitter Adam Kennedy roped a line drive down the right field line. Kennedy wheeled around the bases, assuming his ball had landed in fair territory. When first base umpire Dan Bellino called the ball foul, the members of the Nationals’ bullpen erupted and Manager Jim Riggle- man trudged out to challenge the call, to no avail. Kennedy flared weakly to short-


stop, and Desmond grounded sharp- ly to first to end the inning.


In the eighth, Willie Harris crunched a pinch-hithomerun—the Nationals’ second of the season—so they would not be shut out for the third time in six games. It could have been a two-run blast had NyjerMor- gan not been picked off at first base immediately before the pitch. Desmond tacked on another run


in the ninth, doubling to lead off the inning, moving to second on a deep fly out by Ryan Zimmerman and scoring an a wild pitch. Desmond’s dash around the bases helped for posterity. But it couldn’t keep the Nationals from suffering their sec- ond, ifmucheasier to swallow, loss of the day. Nationals note:Morgan’s hearing


to appeal the seven-game suspension handed down byMajor League Base- ball will take place Sept. 7. kilgorea@washpost.com
