Braves Top Nationals, 8-2
The Atlanta Braves racked up a win at Nationals Park, bumping off the Washington Nationals, 8-2. Matthew Spurrell, who started for Atlanta, pitched effectively for his team. Atlanta improves to 62-29 with the win. They lead their division by 2 games.

It could have been a different outcome for Atlanta, had it not been for Yasuhide Kasahara, the seven-time All-Star . Kasahara contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Atlanta up, 5-2.

Kasahara attributed the win to "energy and focus on the part of everyone."
