“It’s really scary,” said Martinez, who revealed Voth suffered a broken nose that will need to be reset, forcing the right-hander to remain overnight in Philadelphia.

The right-hander was able to walk off the field under his own power, still holding the towel over his face. The ball appeared to graze off the bill of Voth’s helmet before striking the left side of his face, knocking him to the ground.Īs Martinez raced from the dugout, director of athletic training Paul Lessard put a towel over Voth’s nose, which was bleeding. Squaring around to bunt with a runner on first ( Victor Robles, who had just been hit by a pitch himself), Voth couldn’t get out of the way of Vince Velasquez’s 90 mph high-and-tight fastball. It all made for a miserable 4 hours, 26 minutes on a 90-degree Sunday afternoon, one that saw its most frightening moment come in the top of the third with Voth at the plate. That was the topper of the day right there.” And then we start giving up all these runs. “My mood really swung when I saw Voth get hit. “It was a crazy day,” manager Davey Martinez said during his postgame Zoom session with reporters. It felt that way both because of some almost comically bad luck, but also because of some comically bad baseball that accompanied it. Today’s 12-6 loss represented a new low point in a season that has already seen several of them, despite being only 56 games old. And they could’ve made more plays in the field during their most torturous half-inning of baseball in 2021, possibly in several years prior to this one as well. They could’ve thrown more strikes in critical moments, way more strikes. They could’ve hit better with runners in scoring position, a lot better. (Yes, that last event actually happened.)īut there were so many things the Nationals could’ve done better today to make this game far more competitive than it was. There were events out of their control, from their starter for this bullpen game, Austin Voth, taking a fastball to his face in the top of the third to a string of poorly struck balls by the Phillies that somehow didn’t become outs to a 20-minute delay in the top of the eighth after the backstop netting at Citizens Bank Park collapsed.
