- Slow starter? Adam LaRoche (+31.4%) is 4-5 with a 2-run bomb in the 4th to (briefly) put the Nats ahead (+25.6%).
- Slow starter. Gio Gonzalez (-35.1%) fans 6 but walks 3 and gives up 7 hits in only 3.2 IP, somehow holding the damage to 4 ER.
- POP off the bench: Chad Tracy (+45.6%) comes through with a two-run, two-out, bases-loaded single to put the Nats back ahead in the aeyth (+45.6%)
- Also noteworthy: Roger Bernadina (+10.5%) went 2-4, doubling in an insurance run in the aeyth (+12.0%). Craig Stammen (+8.5%) got 5 scoreless outs in long relief.
