Narrow Win Takes Washington Streak to 8
The Washington Nationals had to overcome a good performance from Pittsburgh pitcher Geoff Groves to claim a 3-2 win at Nationals Park. Groves went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. Washington reliever Manny Medina picked up the win to move to 3-3. Damian Wiley suffered the loss. Tuu-ko-ihu Kaleo got credit for the save for Washington. It was his 30th of the year.

Doug Watts tagged a home run off Damian Wiley in the bottom of the eighth. His solo blast put the Nationals on top, 3-2. In all, Watts had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 4.

"Come up with some new questions," snapped losing manager Phil Matthews to reporters, "and I'll come up with some new answers."

The last-place Pirates have dropped 16 straight games.
