Final Thoughts: Speed and pitching were the Nationals weapons in tonight's game.  Nationals stole 7 bases in this game.  Scherzer was decent tonight no walks, 2 hits, on 1 earned run, in 6 innings.  As for the Cubs, their inconsitent play continues.  And you begin to wonder if Theo Epstein has something cooking before the trading deadline.
