In theory, the pregame scratch of Milwaukee Brewers rookie phenom Jacob Misiorowski on Sunday should have offered the Washington Nationals an opportunity to stop their skid. Usually, a team cannot simply replace its ace — or one of its multiple aces — with a player from the minor leagues without a few road bumps along the way.

The Milwaukee Brewers pound out 15 hits a day after collecting 25 in another victory over the Washington Nationals.
