- Save the bullpen! Edwin Jackson (+8.2%) strikes out 6 and walks 4 over 7 IP, giving up 3 R but leaving with the lead (barely).
- I remember this guy! Adam LaRoche (+29.4%) is 2-3 with a sac fly and a three-run jack to put the Nats ahead in the first (+23.0%).
- Jaunty shutdown: Sean Burnett (+6.5%) strikes out 1 on that way to a scoreless 8th.
- Shutdown goggles: Tyler Clippard (+6.3%) has some unnecessary excitement but throws a scoreless 9th for the save.
