- He waited for a breaking ball and skies it straightaway center. See you later. Way up the batter's eye. And the Nats are making Citi Field look rather small tonight. It's 5-0.

- And now we dance again, the third time in three innings.

- And Soto pulls one on a pitch in. High and deep and evidently way out of here. See you later. A 3-run homer for Juan Soto out of sight down the right-field line. Bang, zoom goes Soto.

- 466 they're telling me.

- Homer number five for Teoscar. And he got a pitch up around the letters, and he didn't miss it. He's been hitting that fastball this year.
