The Nationals pitching staff as a whole didn't enjoy a good weekend, but reliever Matt Grace put forth the worst performance of them all.
The left-hander didn't retire a single batter in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Reds. He allowed four runs on three hits before being pulled from the games.
"Just not making pitches" Grace said. "The ball was up in the zone, not getting ahead of guys. That's what happens. … It's frustrating, not being able to contribute to a win, not doing my job. It could be better."
Grace (2-1) now has a 5.25 ERA in 12 innings this season.
