Pirates Take 10-2 Pounding
Washington got a strong outing from Will Klein as the Nationals defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 10-2, at PNC Park. Klein picked up the win for Washington, going 6 innings. He gave up no runs on 3 hits. He now sports a record of 5-4. Their 51-66 record puts the Nationals second in the American League Mid-Atlantic Division.

Washington used a well-timed hit by Oscar Colas to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Nationals ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"In baseball, you have your ups and downs," said Pittsburgh manager Alex Clark. "You just try to stay level-headed the whole time."
