2.9 A Sit-down with Bryce




Between Innings w/ Dan Kolko show

Summary: LEADING OFF (2:25) Dan and John are back as the 2018 regular season enters its final days, ready to recap the last six months in a big-picture sense. With the Nats now mathematically eliminated from postseason contention, the boys share their thoughts on why things never materialized this year the way everyone expected, and why the window is not closed for future seasons. INSIDE THE CLUBHOUSE (11:57) Dan sits down with Bryce Harper for a lengthy chat, covering everything from the day he was drafted by the Nationals to his thoughts entering free agency. A reflective, open, admittedly emotional Bryce discusses how he's a different person and player now than he was when he joined the organization, his love for D.C., and how he's mentally approaching what could be a life-changing offseason. The interview, in full, covers the three-part series aired on MASN. AROUND THE LEAGUE (36:25) With the playoff picture getting pretty clear, Dan and John discuss some interesting October possibilities, and what teams they'll be rooting for with the Nats not in the mix. ON DECK (42:20) Two games remain on the home schedule, and Dan says he's excited to see how Nats fans show Harper how they feel in what could be his final games at Nats Park as a member of the home team. John, meanwhile, digs deep to find some statistics showing just how historically dominant Max Scherzer has been as a National, as the Nats ace makes a bid for 300 strikeouts this season
