Victory Celebration: Guardians Crush Nationals 9-1 
Wow, what an exciting game for us Cleveland Guardians fans! The Guardians rolled over the Nationals with an impressive 9-1 win! After a quiet start, our team really brought the heat! A huge homer in the 6th inning by the ever-reliable Carlos Santana was the turning point that broke the scoreless tie and put us up by three. Bats Come Alive in the Later Innings 
️
In the 6th inning, Jose Ramirez set the stage with a critical double to center, followed by Carlos Santana nailing a three-run homer to right field—as sweet as it gets! The momentum continued in the 7th and 8th innings, where Daniel Schneemann homered, contributing two crucial runs. Schneemann was on fire, also scoring after a wild pitch earlier in the inning! And who could forget Austin Hedges’ solo homer in the 9th inning, capping off our incredible offensive showcase. 
Pitching and Defense Stand Strong 
Our pitchers put forth a stellar performance today. After allowing a solo homer by Riley Adams, the pitching staff stood tall. Highlights include Sam Hentges’ relief appearance that put the brakes on the Nationals in the 6th inning, and it was fantastic to see Nick Sandlin shutting things down in the 9th with an impressive double play. The defense was sharp and spectacular, a true team effort from our Guardians.Let’s enjoy this well-deserved win and look forward to maintaining this fantastic form for the rest of the season! Go Guardians!
